Abstract

Introduction: The time-efficiency of high intensity circuit training is similar to high intensity interval training. Through self-weight resistance, simple equipment and a limited space, the training can improve metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors. Previous studies in high intensity training, most of the subjects were sedentary or obese. And there were few studies to explore the effect of high intensity circuit training on metabolic index, adiponectin and leptin simultaneously. In addition, the results of related research were still inconsistent. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the effect of high intensity circuit training on body composition, metabolic syndrome factors, lower limb muscular strength and dynamic stability in middle-aged women. Methods: Forty-one middle-aged women were randomly divided into three groups: high intensity circuit training (HICT), aerobic training group (AT) and control (CON) group. The training performed for 8 weeks and consisted of 3 days per week, 30-45 minutes per session. The pretest and posttest were conduct before and after the training. The data was analyzed by mixed design of two-way ANOVA. Results: In HICT group, the muscle mass, HDL, body fat mass and leptin were significant improvements. And in AT group, the HDL, body weight and leptin were significant improvements. In addition, the lower limb muscular strength extension and flexion at 180∘.s^(-1) in HICT group were significantly higher than CON group. And the dynamic stability was significantly higher in HICT group and AT group than CON group after training. Conclusion: After 8 weeks of training, the high intensity circuit training can significantly improve the muscle mass, body fat mass, HDL, leptin, lower limb power and dynamic stability, and aerobic training can improve body weight, HDL, leptin and dynamic stability in middle-aged women.
