O efeito do exercício resistido e aeróbio na síndrome metabólica

Abstract

Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a set of cardiovascular risk factors related to visceral obesity and insulin resistance (IR), which lead to increased overall mortality. Considered for the diagnosis of MS syndrome at least three of the following: waist circumference, triglycerides and glucose in high fasting; HDL-C decreased; and systemic hypertension that associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Studies say that aerobic exercise combined with resistance exercise is considered a key ally in the treatment of each of these factors. The type, intensity, duration and frequency are essential components of the development of an exercise program and the different combinations of these components are parameters studies for the improvement of several chronic diseases such as MS and its risk factors. On the above subject, the aim of this study is to show that aerobic exercise associated with resistance exercise has contributions in the metabolic syndrome, as well as to analyze the influence of the practice of aerobic exercise and resistance in SM, and how its effects can contribute positively in the treatment of MS.
