Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effects of 8week highintensity interval training on body shape and adipokines of obese male college students, so as to provide practical reference for weight loss of obese college students.
Methods:A total of 30 male college students [age (20.10±0.55)years] with body mass index (BMI) ≥28 kg/m2 were recruited in March 2022 at China University of Petroleum (East China). The 8week highintensity interval training (HIIT) intervention was conducted from 11 April to 10 June 2022, 3 times a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday), each time for 16:30-17:30. Body composition and adipokine levels were assessed before and after the intervention. All indicators were compared by pairedsamples ttests and single factor repeated measurement analysis of variance before and after intervention, and Pearson correlation analyses were used to test for associations between variables.
Results:After 8 weeks of intervention, BMI, waist circumference and body fat of obese male college students decreased from (31.36±4.41)kg/m2, (107.52±9.66)cm and (28.04±5.79)kg to (30.40±4.37)kg/m2, (100.67±8.29)cm and (22.56±5.22)kg, respectively (t=3.84, 8.02, 9.29). Fatfree body mass index increased from (70.19±5.54)kg/m2 to (75.34±5.25)kg/m2 (t=-8.65) (P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the levels of Leptin, Adiponectin, and Irisin before intervention, at week 4 and at week 8 (F=26.05, 35.62, 4.95, P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the content of reticulin (F=3.62, P>0.05).
Conclusions:The 8week of HIIT can effectively improve body shape of obese male college students and affect the effects of adipokines in the body. HIIT can be added to sports exercise to improve the health status of obese college students.
