Effect of exercise on adipokines in normal weight (NWG), overweight (OVG) and obese (OBG) groups.

<p>Plasma and serum was separated immediately after blood collection before (T0), after 6 months (T6) and 12 months (T12) of the exercise training program. The plasma or serum concentrations of leptin, adiponectin, IL-6 and resistin were determined using an Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. The values presented are the mean ± standard error of mean. ^a comparison to normal weight group; ^b comparison to overweight group; ^c comparison to before program training (T0); ^d comparison to after 6 months of program training.</p

Effect of exercise on fitness capacity in normal weight (NWG), overweight (OVG) and obese (OBG) groups.

<p>Aerobic capacity and isometric back strength were evaluated before (T0), after 6 months (T6) and 12 months (T12) of the exercise training program. The values presented are the mean ± standard error of mean. ^c comparison to before training.</p
