Effects of Different Modes of Exercise Training on Body Composition and Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease in Middle ‑aged Men

Conclusions:The results indicated that 12 ‑week workout, 20–60 min/session, 3 days a week of moderate intensity exercise improved body composition,ICAM ‑1, VCAM‑1, and CRP compared to those who did not participate in any training. However, all three types of exercises had small benefts on body composition, ICAM‑1, VCAM‑1, and CRP in sedentary middle‑aged men, and the importance of combined training required further investigations.Keywords:Body composition, cardiovascular risk factors, exercise training, middle ‑aged men
