저항성 운동이 노인의 성장관련 동화호르몬과 아디포사이토카인에 미치는 영향

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of resistance exercise on anabolic hormones and adipocytokines of the elderly. The subjects were randomly assigned into the resistance exercise group (n=20), and the control group (n=16). An exercise session composed of three phases (warm-up phase, main exercise phase, and cool-down phase) was performed for 60 minutes during which various types of resistance exercises were given to the exercise group of the elderly using dumbbell. Exercise session was performed 3 times per week for 12 weeks. The analyses represented that average GH (F=4.587, p=0.043) was significantly increased by the 12-week band exercise, whereas average IGF-I, IGFBP-3, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and CRP were not significantly changed (p>0.05). For the elderly people, resistance exercise did not appear to bring positive effects on anabolic hormones and adipocytokines.
