ABSTRACT
Aims
The purpose of this study was to survey responses of the markers of liver function (AL,
AST, ALP, Tb) and Hb to a single bout of aerobic exercise at different intensities in normal
untrained males.
Materials & Methods This semi-experimental and causal cross-sectional post hoc study was conducted on the population of 19-21 year old males in Kerman University, Iran. 56 untrained adolescent males were randomly divided into one control group and three experimental ones. The experimental groups were exercised for 30 min. on a cycle ergometer with corresponding rage of 60, 70 and 85% of maximal heart rate. Fasting blood samples were collected at pre and post exercise stages, and the data were analyzed with one way ANOVA and Tukey tests (HSD).
Findings There was a significant difference in ALP between the moderate and high intensity groups with control group. Yet, the differences among the experimental groups were not significant. Also, there were significant differences in Hb between the control group and all three experimental groups. In addition, there were significant differences between low and moderate experimental groups with high experimental group. However, the differences between low and moderate experimental groups were not significant. The results also showed that there were not significant differences among four groups in AST, ALT, and Tb.
Conclusion The duration of a single bout of cycling aerobic exercise with high, moderate and low intensities does not damage the liver cells in any exercise group.
