Abstract

Adipose tissue, as an endocrine gland, produces many intermediate compounds similar to adipokines that play a role in some metabolic processes. Among these adipokine-derived hormones can be leptin, adiponectin, resistin, apline, omentin. The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to investigate the effect of 12 weeks Pilates exercise training on serum levels of Apelin and Omentin-1 in overactive inactive women that in which 28 overweight women voluntarily participated and were then randomly divided into Pilates (n = 14) and control (n = 14) groups. The Pilates training program lasted twelve weeks and 3 sessions per week, with 60 minutes per session. The control group did not exercise for 12 weeks. Blood samples were taken 48 hours before the first session and 48 hours after the last training session of the twelfth week of exercise, after 12-14 hours of fasting in two stages. Dependent t-test and covariance analysis test were used to analyze the intra-group and between-group differences groups, respectively. After 12 weeks of Pilates exercise, there was a significant decrease in Apelin, weight, body mass index and fat percentage and a significant increase in omentin-1. Based on the results of the present study, it seems that Pilates exercise may be a significant and applicable factor for the regulation of adipose tissue hormones in obese or overweight women given their ability to People can do Pilates exercises.
