Background and aims: Due to the high prevalence of obesity and fatty liver disease caused by obesity, it is necessary to find an effective and useful solution. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the effect of 12 weeks of TRX training on fatty liver enzymes in obese and overweight female.
Methods: Totally, 30 overweight and obese female (BMI=33.24±4.7) who had no history of exercise or certain diseases were selected as a purposive sampling. Then, they were randomly divided into two groups of TRX training (n=15) and control (n=15). The training protocol included resistance training in the form of TRX suspension training, which was performed three days a week on non-consecutive days for 12 weeks, and each session lasted 60 minutes. Body weight, height and levels of liver function tests (LFTs) along with hepatic steatosis index (HSI) were measured 48 hours before and after the training period.
Results: It was found that body weight (p=0.001) and BMI (p=0.001) in the exercise group decreased significantly compared to the control group. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the serum levels of LFTs as well as HSI.
Conclusion: It seems that although TRX resistance training for 12 weeks has a beneficial effect on improving body weight and BMI, this training intervention has no effect on LFTs and HSI in overweight and obese women.
