Background. Obesity, through creating disorder in blood lipids and also, increase insulin resistance, has a main role in appearance high risk disease such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and various kind of cancer. Objectives. The aim of this study was to survey effect of eight weeks continuous aerobic training accompanied with green tea consumption on lipid profile of inactive obese fe...

the objective of this research was to study the feasibility of a two stage continuous system employing anaerobic-aerobic microbial film for domestic wastewater treatment and the effect of iron on the behavior of sulfate reducing bacteria in anaerobic metabolism. a bench scale system with an anaerobic filter followed by aerobic fixed units used plastic media and was operated in up flow manner wi...

the aim of this study was to determine the effect of 6 weeks of aerobic training and l-carnitine supplement on body fat percent and serum lipid profiles in active men. the method used was semi-experimental. eighteen active men were selected voluntarily and randomly divided into two groups of experimental (nine individuals with the average age: 44.4+8 years, weight: 8.2+16.6 kg, height: 173+6 cm...

purpose the present study was designed to evaluate the effects of aerobic and strength training on cardiac variables such as blood pressure, heart rate (hr), and metabolic parameters like cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (hdl), triglycerides and anthropometric parameters of obese women of punjab. methods this study was performed as an experimental study, in which subjects were randomly sel...

In a recent paper, Farmer (2000) offered a novel and stimulating hypothesis for the convergent evolution of endothermy in birds and mammals. She proposed that a high level of nonshivering thermogenesis by adults evolved because of the benefits it provided to their developing embryos. Initially, a higher standard metabolic rate (SMR), and consequently a higher body temperature, served only to in...

This study explored the effects of exercise modality and type of fitness index on cognitive function in the older adults as assessed via behavioral and neuroelectrical approaches. Sixty older adults were assigned to an aerobic exercise, a coordination exercise, or a control group based on their previous exercise experience. The participants completed congruent and incongruent trials of a modifi...
