Purpose To examine the changes in android and gynoid fats after 4-week aerobic training and calorie restriction in overweight and obese adolescents.Methods Eighteen young healthy teenagers(9 boys and 9 girls),completed this 4-week intervention.During the intervention,they were on diet and training(5 h/d,6 d/wk) at low aerobic intensity through HR monitoring every 10 minutes during the training.The target HR was set in accordance to Karvonen equation [rest HR + HR reserve×(20%~40%)].Android and gynoid fats were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry before and after 4-week intervention.Results(1)Total mass,fat mass and the percentage of fat mass of android and gynoid region decreased significantly after 4-week intervention(P 0.01).(2)The descent rate of android fat mass in total was greater than that in gynoid region(17.45%±6.19% vs 13.60%±2.65%,P 0.05).The descent rate of android fat mass after intervention in boys was significantly higher than that of gynoid fat mass(20.26% vs 14.36%,P 0.05),while there was no statistical difference in girls(14.63% vs 12.85%,P 0.05).(3)The decreasing range of android fat mass in boys was obviously greater than that in girls(20.26%±5.43% vs 14.63%±5.85%,P 0.05).(4)The amount of gynoid mass loss after intervention was much greater than that of android,while the decreased amplitude of gynoid mass was significantly less than that of android(8.91%±2.17% vs 12.77%±3.94%,P 0.01).(5)The percent of fat loss vs total mass loss in android region was significantly greater than that in gynoid region in boys(75.9%±11.15% vs 63.47%±8.2%,P 0.05).Conclusion Four-week aerobic training and calorie restriction reduced both total mass and fat mass in android and gynoid regions efficiently.Boys lost more fat than girls in android region.
