The riding exercise program was conducted 25 times a week for 12 weeks. The pre test was performed before the start of the riding exercise program, and the post test was performed after 6 weeks of exercise and 12 weeks after exercise. To determine the changes in serum lipid profiles before and after exercise at 6 weeks and 12 weeks after exercise, repeated measures analysis of variance was used.
Results : As a result of comparing the blood components of each group, TG, TC and LDL-C were decreased in both groups after 12 weeks of riding exercise program but there was no statistically significant difference. On the other hand, both groups increased in HDL-C but there was no statistically significant difference.
