Abstract
Purpose: To determine the effect of combined aerobic and circuit weight training on obese body composition and optimal health. Methods: Sixty women divided into two equal groups with grade one obesity included in this study with an age ranged from 30 to 45 years old. group (A) : 30 women followed low caloric well balanced diet and aerobic exercises only for 12 weeks three days per week, group (B): 30 women followed low caloric well balanced diet and combined aerobic with circuit weight training for 12 weeks three days per week. They were chosen from El Kasr El Ainy outpatient clinic. Results: BMI showed a statistical significant decrease after the program of both groups in favor of combined aerobic with circuit weight training. The percentage of change of BMI for group (A) was10.68%{u2193} whereas; in group (B) was 28%{u2193}. The body fat percent showed a statistical significant decrease after the program of both groups in favor of combined aerobic with circuit weight training. The percentage of change of body fat percent for group (A) was 10.62%{u2193} whereas; in group (B) was 13.91%{u2193}. The body water percent showed a statistical significant increase after the program of both groups in favor of combined aerobic with circuit weight training. The percentage of change of body water percent for group (A) was 8.64% {u2191} whereas; in group (B)was11.3%{u2191}%.The C-reactive protein showed a statistical significant reduction after the program of both groups in favor of combined aerobic with circuit weight training. The percentage of change of CRP for group (A) was 13.58%{u2193} whereas; in group (B) was 34.94%{u2193}. The six minutes walking test showed a statistical significant increase after the program of both groups in favor of combined aerobic with circuit weight training. The percentage of change of six minutes walking test for group (A) was12.68%{u2191} whereas; in group (B) was 18.43%{u2191}
