Abstract

Obesity is a risk Factor of many disease including cardiovascular disease (CVD), cancer, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and gall blader: It is determined by two important determinants including "body mass index" (BMI) indicating general obesity status and "waist to hip ratio" (WHR) indicating abdominal obesity which is the most dangerous kind of obesity. This study investigates the best way for controlling obesity especially the abdominal one by comparing three groups with low calorie diet, exercise of both with control group.Method: Sixty men, aged 20-50 years old, with BMI of 25-40 (first and second degree of obesity) were selected randomly among those referred to Mobareken Steel Complex Body building Club. They had no history of other diseases and were divided into 4 equal groups. Based on the agreement of all groups, group one was recommended only a low- calorie diet (500 calories/ day). Group two underwent a combined program including an ordinary diet and exercise activity (3 aerobic exercise sessions per week, each lasting 1.5-2 hours). Group three and group four were recommended a low calorie diet as well as exercise, and an ordinary diet (no reduce on calorie), respectively. Group one and group four agreed not to change their physical activity level for three months. Anthropometric measurements such as weight, height, hip and waist girths were determined at first and repeated 2 times per month for 3 months.Results: Mean BMI reduction in four groups are 2.5:t1, 2±0.8, 4.8±1.3, and 1.1±0.33, respectively. Mean of decreasing WHR in four groups are 0.03±0.01, 0.04±0.02, 0.1l±0.07 and 0.0, respectively. Comparing changes of BMI and WHR in group three with the other groups has a significant difference (P<0.05) and low calorie diet caused to reduce BMI significantly.Conclusion: Comparing different ways for controlling obesity show that low calorie diet is effective in decreasing general obesity. But it's very health- beneficial to consider both exercise and low- calorie diet for controlling abdominal obesity especially being a risk factor for most diseases including CVD.
