          Abstract

          Clinical trials have shown that exercise in adults with overweight or obesity can reduce bodyweight. There has been no quantitative systematic review of this in The Cochrane Library.

          Influence of exercise training on physiological and performance changes with weight loss in men.

          The purpose of this study was to examine the physiological effects of a weight-loss dietary regimen with or without exercise. Thirty-five overweight men were matched and randomly placed into either a control group (C; N = 6) or one of three dietary groups; a diet-only group (D; N = 8), a diet group that performed aerobic exercise three times per week (DE; N = 11); and a diet group that performed both aerobic and strength training three times per week (DES; N = 10). After 12 wk, D, DE, and DES demonstrated a similar and significant (P < or = 0.05) reduction in body mass (-9.64, -8.99, and -9.90 kg, respectively) with fat mass comprising 69, 78, and 97% of the total loss in body mass, respectively. The diet-only group also demonstrated a significant reduction in fat-free mass. Maximum strength, as determined by 1-RM testing in the bench press and squat exercise was significantly increased for DES in both the bench press (+19.6%) and squat exercise (+32.6%). Absolute peak O2 consumption was significantly elevated in DE (+24.8%) and DES (+15.4%). There were no differences in performance during a 30-s Wingate test for the DE and DES, whereas D demonstrated a significant decline in peak and mean power output. Resting metabolic rate (RMR) (kcal x d(-1)) was not significantly different for any of the groups except for the DE group. There were no significant changes in basal concentrations of serum glucose, BUN, cortisol, testosterone, and high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol for any of the groups. Serum total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol were significantly decreased for all dietary groups. Serum triglycerides were significantly reduced for D and DES at week 6 and remained lower at week 12 for D, while triglycerides returned to baseline values for DES. These data indicate that a weight-loss dietary regimen in conjunction with aerobic and resistance exercise prevents the normal decline in fat-free mass and muscular power and augments body composition, maximal strength, and maximum oxygen consumption compared with weight-loss induced by diet alone.

            Influence of 12 weeks of training by brisk walking on postprandial lipemia and insulinemia in sedentary middle-aged women.

            The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of brisk walking on postprandial lipemia in 26 sedentary women aged 41 to 55 years. The lipemic response to a high-fat meal (mean +/- SEM: 73.8 +/- 1.3 g fat, 66% energy; 81.8 +/- 1.4 g carbohydrate) was determined pretraining and posttraining. Blood samples were obtained in the fasted state and hourly for 6 hours after the meal. Serum was analyzed for triacylglycerol (TAG), total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and HDL2 cholesterol, apolipoproteins (apos) A-I and B, nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA), glucose, and insulin. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of two groups: walkers (n = 13) followed a program of brisk walking (average of 21 +/- 1 [range, 17 to 27] min.d-1 at 1.76 +/- 0.02 m.s-1), whereas controls (n = 13) maintained their habitual life-style. Procedures were repeated 12 weeks later, with 48 hours between the last training session and determination of postprandial lipemia. Eleven walkers and 13 controls completed the study. Responses over time were compared between groups (Mann-Whitney U, P < .05). Brisk walking improved endurance fitness and decreased body fatness, but had no influence on peak TAG concentration (walkers, 1.6 +/- 0.2 v 1.6 +/- 0.2 mmol.L-1; controls, 1.9 +/- 0.3 v 2.1 +/- 0.3) or the area under the TAG/time curve after the test meal. The area under the insulin/time curve decreased in walkers relative to controls. These results suggest that in sedentary women aged 41 to 55, brisk walking attenuates the serum insulin response, but not the lipemic response, to consumption of a high-fat mixed meal when these responses are determined 48 hours after the last exercise bout.
