Abstract

Introduction:Physical exercise is well recognized as an important strategy for reducing the risk of chronic disease via improving the inflammatory profile. This study examined and compared the influence of three sessions versus five sessions of aerobic training per week on serum levels of C - reactive protein (CRP) and fibrinogen, and lipids profile in young sedentary obese men. Materials and Methods:This study was an applied one with semi-experimental design. Participants included 28 sedentary obese men (BMI: 30.8±2.81 kg/m2,mean aged: 21 years), which were randomly assigned to control group and two training groups: three sessions of running training (50-75% of heart rate reserve) per week for 50-60 minutes in each session, and five sessions per week for 30-40 minutes in each session. Both groups were trainined for a priod 16 weeks. Serum levels of CRP, fibrinogen, and lipids profile and anthropometric indices were measured before and 48 hours after the last training session. Results: Although three sessions of aerobic training perweek significantly changed the body composition (P
