|
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Gi exercises and soybean milk supplement on the body composition and the physiological parameters including blood level of lipids and related hormones in middle-aged women. The Gi exercise program was composed of warming-up(10 min), main exercise(40 min) and cooling-down(10 min). The 40 middle-aged women between 40 and 60 years old were divided into four groups; the control group(12 women), the Gi exercise group(14 women), the soybean milk supplement group(11 women), and the Gi exercise group with soybean milk supplement(14 women). The Gi exercise program was applied three times a week and two packs of the soybean milk per day were given. The result of this study was as follows
1. The control group showed the increase of body weight, percent body fat, and fat mass than other groups.
2. The blood level of T-C was increased in the control group and the Gi exercise group and exercise with supplemented group were decreased
3. The blood level of HDL-C was significantly decreased in the control group than other groups.
4. The blood level of LDL-C was significantly increased in the control group than other groups.
5. The level of TG were not significantly changed in all groups
6. The follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) hormone levels were not significantly changed in all study groups
