The Effect of Four Weeks Continuous Aerobic Training on Liver Transaminases and Glycemic Markers in Women with Type II Diabetes

Fatty liver disease is one of the most common diseases in women with type II diabetes. While regular exercise can decrease the complication of this disease, it was not clearly identified. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of four weeks aerobic training on Liver Transaminases and some glycemic markers in women with type II diabetes.Materials and Methods: In this study, 20 patients with type II diabetes were participated in two groups (experimental and control group). The experimental group did the continuous aerobic training and running on treadmill with 55 to 80 percent of their maximum heart rate for five times a week during the four weeks. The blood samples were prepared in two pre-test and post-test steps to measure the levels of liver transaminases, glucose and insulin through ELISA method. Results: Statistical analysis showed that after four weeks of aerobic training, the liver inflammatory markers, glucose and insulin related to the experimental group had no significant difference in comparison with control group (P>0.05). Conclusion: The results indicated that doing the continuous aerobic training five times a week during four weeks with 55 to 80 percent of maximum heart rate, do not diminish liver transaminases, glucose and insulin in women with type II diabetes.
