Abstract
BACKGROUND: Due to the high prevalence of obesity and metabolic disease caused by obesity results from an imbalanced calorie consumption and calorie expenditure, it is necessary to find an effective and useful training method to mitigate the adverse effects of excess adiposity. METHODS: 30 overweight and obese women (BMI=33.24±4.7) with no history of exercise or certain diseases were selected and randomly divided into two groups of TRX training (n=15) and control (n=15). The TRX training program consisted of 12 weeks of TRX training, 3 sessions per week. The total training duration per session was 60 min and entailed 45 min of TRX suspension training and 10 min for a warm-up, and 5 min for a cool down. Body weight, waist circumferences, BMI, BAI, VAI, TyG, fasting blood glucose, HOMA-IR and HOMA-β were measured 48 hours before and after the training period. RESULTS: There were decrease in the weight (P = 0.001) and BMI (P = 0.001), TG (P = 0.001), VAI (P < 0.001), BAI (P < 0.001), TyG (P = 0.004), TyG-BMI (P < 0.001), and TyG-WC (P < 0.001) in the experimental group and HDL (P = 0.013) was improved. No changes observed in FBS (P = 0.165), Insulin (P = 0.084), HOMA-IR (P = 0.97), and HOMA-β cell (P = 0.128). CONCLUSIONS: Anthropometric indices and lipid profile are more sensitive to TRX training than blood-related factors. Thus, TRX training is an affective training protocol to control body composition and lipid profile and consequently lower MetS risk factors in overweight and obese women.
