Abstract :
Aim: Liver disease followed by heart dysfunction is one of the major causes of death in the world. Today, the prevalence of this disease is increasing. Diet, inactivity and increased systemic inflammation indicators are related to the occurrence of this disease. This study was conducted in order to determine the effect of resistance exercise on body composition, lipid profile and cardiac inflammatory factors in liver patients. Method: This controlled clinical trial study was conducted on 30 fatty liver patients with grade 2 liver failure who had visited Hamden bodybuilding club in 2001. Subjects were randomly divided into control and experimental groups. 24 hours before the start of the first training session, the first blood sample was taken from them. Resistance exercises were held for 24 sessions during 8 weeks. Results: The average concentration of CRP, lipid profile and cardiac inflammatory factors of the experimental group compared to the control group decreased significantly after 8 weeks of resistance exercises (p<0.05). ). Conclusion: Resistance training led to a decrease in systemic inflammation and lipid profile in liver patients.
