The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the regular resistance exercise with aerobic exercise training program participation on cardiovascular disease risk factors and rate of changes in the elderly women with cardiovascular disease. Subjects were 40 elderly women with cardiovascular disease who were 65~75 years old. We enrolled 20 exercise group into the participated 12 week complex exercise program. In measurement index, rest, exercise cardiovascular disease risk factor and rate of changes were measured by the submaximal exercise stress test. Results of this study were as follows; in the rest cardiovascular disease risk factor, % body fat, serum lipids and C-reactive protein (CRP) were increased in control group, but exercise group were decreased. In the exercise cardiovascular disease risk factor, control group were decreased, but exercise group were increased by the 12 week training program. In conclusion, we could know that not only the regular training might increase or change almost the cardiovascular function variables for serum lipid, body composition, exercise capacity between before and after complex training. Therefore, we might tell that complex training program could provide an excellent parameters for enforcing or keeping the cardiovascular function of elderly women with cardiovascular disease.
