Effective of aerobic and anaerobic exercise training on the inflammatory markers and lipid plasma levels

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effective of aerobic and anaerobic exercise training in some inflammatory markers affecting cardiovascular disease. 45 young healthy men randomly were selected among the students of hamadan payame noor university and were divided into 3 groups including: 1. the experimental group 1 receiving aerobic exercise training, 2. the experimental group 2 receiving anaerobic exercise training, and 3. the control group receiving no training. the experimental groups received the relevant exercise training for 8 weeks. the control group did not receive any exercise training in this period. the levels of c-reactive protein (crp), inter leukin-6, high-density lipoprotein (hdl), low-density lipoprotein, and fibrinogen were assessed and compared before and after the training period. the levels of fibrinogen in the experimental group 1 decreased significantly in the post-test than the pre-test. also, the results showed that the levels of crp in the experimental group 1 decreased significantly than the control group. the levels of fibrinogen in the experimental group 1 decreased significantly than the control group in the post-test. in the experimental group 2, the levels of hdl increased significantly than the control group in the post-test. other variables did not change between the groups. the effective of both aerobic and anaerobic exercise training was proven in reducing some cardiovascular risk factors, although the aerobic exercise was more effective than the anaerobic exercise.
