Abstract

Aim: Obesity and metabolic disorders are considered as risk factors for health and both physical activity and herbal supplements have appreciable effects on weight control. Therefore, The aim of present study was to investigate the effect of eight weeks of resistance training with green tea extract supplementation on serum levels of adiponectin and pentraxin-3 in obese men. Methods: In an experimental experiment - with a double-blind design, 30 healthy men with an age range of 26-38 years and a body mass index of more than 30 kg / m2 were randomly divided into three groups of 10, including the green tea extract supplement group, exercise group + Green tea extract supplement and exercise group + placebo were included. The experimental subjects received circuit resistance training, which was performed three times a week. All groups were given 600 mg green tea extract supplements or placebo for eight weeks in two doses of 300 mg daily. Anthropometric indices, and blood sampling were measured before and after eight weeks of circuit resistance training. Data analysis was performed using analysis of variance with cunning measurement as a 3.2 design at a significance level of p≥0.05. Results: The results showed that 8 weeks of resistance training with green tea extract supplement significantly reduced body weight (p≥0.02), body mass index (p≥0.02) and waist to hip ratio (p≥0.04) in the training group with green tea extract supplement, but a significant change in levels. Serum adiponectin (p=0.06) and pentraxin-3 (p=0.27) were not observed. Conclusions: It seems that consumption of green tea extract along with resistance training could be beneficial in obese males’ weight control, however; no firm conclusions can still be drawn on their concomitance.
