background: exercise and consumption of green tea affect the aging process. however, the effect of exercise training combined with green tea extract on leukocyte telomere length, quality of life (qol) and body composition in aging has so far been unclear and inconsistent. objective: the aim of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of aerobic training intervention and green tea ex...

the aim of this study was to compare the effect of a session of aerobic and anaerobic exercise on changes of iga/salivary total protein ratio in non-athlete girls. 36 non-athlete girls were randomly divided into three groups: anaerobic (n =12) with mean age of 23±1.91 years, aerobic (n =12) with mean age of 21±1.45 years and the control group (n =12) with mean age 23.25±2.09 years. salivary sam...

conclusions our findings revealed that aerobic exercise increases self-esteem. an improvement in educational, family, social, and general self-esteem scores was seen only in the experimental group. results the results showed that although the self-esteem average score was not significant before the intervention, it increased significantly in the experimental group. in the experimental group, th...

Resistance (muscle strengthening) exercise is a key component of exercise recommendations for weight control yet very little is known about the effects of resistance exercise on appetite. We investigated the effects of resistance and aerobic exercise on hunger and circulating levels of the gut hormones acylated ghrelin and peptide YY (PYY). Eleven healthy male students: age 21.1 ± 0.3 y, body m...

To the Editor: We thank Kurtoglu and colleagues for their interest in our article, “Aerobic Exercise Training Decreases Plasma Asymmetric Dimethylarginine Concentrations with Increase in Arterial Compliance in Postmenopausal Women.”1 We demonstrated that 12 weeks of aerobic exercise training decreased plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) concentrations in postmenopausal women. In their Let...

This study examined the effects of aerobic exercise on lipid levels in premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Fifty healthy middle-aged women (mean age, 50 years) were randomly assigned to 12 weeks of either aerobic exercise (walking and jogging) or nonaerobic strength exercise (circuit Nautilus training). Concentrations of total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, low density l...

The effects of aerobic exercise training in a sample of 85 older adults were investigated. Ss were assigned randomly to either an aerobic exercise group, a nonaerobic exercise (yoga) group, or a waiting-list control group. Following 16 weeks of the group-specific protocol, all of the older Ss received 16 weeks of aerobic exercise training. The older adults demonstrated a significant increase in...

Objective: Standard compression stockings are used to create elastic pressure in correcting and maintaining the hemodynamics of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and prevent limb swelling in patients with DVT. This study aimed to compare the effect of aerobic exercise with lower extremity elastic pressure on some hematological features of obese patients with DVT. Materials and Methods: For this purpo...

objective: the recent study aimed to investigate the effects of chronic aerobic activity on the plasma levels of orexin a, leptin, glucose, insulin, and insulin resistance in males with type 2 diabetes. materials and methods: twenty subjects randomly assigned into control and experimental groups, involving 10 people in each group. exercise protocol consisted of eight session aerobic exercise. e...
