Resumen
REBOLLEDO-COBOS, Roberto et al. Acute effects of resistance training on postprandial lipemia in overweight postmenopausal women. rev.fac.med. [online]. 2019, vol.67, n.2, pp.257-263. ISSN 0120-0011. https://doi.org/10.15446/revfacmed.v67n2.66844.
Introduction:
The magnitude of postprandial lipemia is an indicator of cardiovascular risk, especially in women with reduced hormonal activity. Resistance training (RT) may be a factor influencing lipid concentrations after eating.
Objective:
To determine the acute effects of high and low volume RT sessions on postprandial lipemia in postmenopausal women compared to a control group.
Materials and methods:
After an initial assessment (anthropometry, lipid profile and muscle fitness), 32 women were randomly divided into three groups: one with high volume of RT (n=11), another with low volume of RT (n=11) and a control group without RT (n=10). 12 hours after the completion of the training, a hyperlipidic nutritional compound was administered and postprandial lipemia was analyzed every hour for 5 hours.
Results:
The different RT volumes did not significantly reduce lipemic markers (total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and VLDL) (p>0.05) nor did they increase plasma HDL concentrations (p>0.05).
Conclusions:
RT sessions did not affect postprandial lipemic markers, although they did show relevant clinical results in the experimental groups (reduction of LDL-VLDL and increase of HDL at specific times).
