Abstract

Adiponectin is a type of protein that has anti-inflammatory effects downregulated in adipose tissue. The consequences of adiponectin on exercise-induced weight loss and caloric restriction levels are not well understood. The purpose of this research was to determine whether the dose of Aquafit-Running (AR) exercise at an intensity of 75% HRmax for a duration of 45 minutes, a frequency of 3–4 times per week, and calorie restriction consumption of Fit-Bar (FB) 1 pack before and after treatment can have an effect on adiponectin levels in obese women. A randomized pretest-posttest control group design was used experimentally on 48 obese women (BMI > 31 kg/m2) aged 50–60 years and divided into four groups. Aquafit-Running group (AR) 75% HRmax, twice a day, for 6 weeks (n = 12). Fit-Bar group (FB) 1 pack of Fit-Bar before and after treatment, for 6 weeks (n = 12), Aquafit-Running and Fit-Bar group (AR+FB) (n = 12), as well as the (n = 12) control group. Body fat percentage, body weight, height, BMI, and adiponectin levels were examined before and after treatment. Hypothesis The (One-Way Anova and Kruskal-Wallis) tests were used, Mann-Whitney and Tukey HSD tests for average difference. The findings of this study showed a the (AR+FB) group had a greater decrease in body fat percentage. compared to the (AR), (FB), and control groups (6.21+0.40; 04.20+0.32; 2.45+0.93; 0.62+ 1.22, p = 0.000). The growth in the AR had higher adiponectin levels group in comparison to the FB, AR+FB, and control groups, amounting to (10.28+1.02; 3.36+0.36; 5.61+0.70; 0.58+ 0.64; p = 0.000). The conclusions of this study showed positive changes in decreasing body fat percentage and increasing the levels of adiponectin in obese women; in the (AR+FB) group, body fat percentage decreased by 6.21%, while the adiponectin levels increased by 10.28 μg/mL. Aquafit-Running exercises with an intensity of 75% HRMax, duration of 45 minutes, frequency of 3–4 times a week, and consuming 1 pack of Fitbar before and after Aquafit-Running is one of the non-pharmacological preventions in obesity. © JPES.
