Abstract :

Satiety-hunger signals regulate rhythmic clocks in peripheral tissues through the availability of many macronutrients in the circulation. The aim of this research was to study the effect of eight weeks of endurance training in the morning and the evening on serum levels of asprosin, leptin, insulin, insulin resistance and appetite index in non-athlete obese men. In this semi-experimental study, 36 non-athletic obese young men with an average age of 25.4 ± 3.3 years, weight 98.3 ± 7.7 kg, and body mass index 31.8±1.2 kg/m² were selected as subjects in a targeted and available manner. Subjects were randomly divided into three equal groups including; Control, morning training and evening training. The endurance training protocol was implemented for eight weeks, three sessions per week and with an intensity of 60 to 75% of the maximum heart rate. Before and after the training period, blood sampling was done at 10 hours of overnight fasting state. The data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance and at a significance level of p < 0.05. Eight weeks of endurance training led to a significant decrease in asprosin (p = 0.0001), leptin (p = 0.02), insulin (p = 0.0001), glucose (p = 0.0001), insulin resistance (p = 0.0001) and appetite index (p = 0.001). Tukey’s post hoc test indicated that, compared to the control group, evening training has a greater and more significant effect on all the mentioned variables. It seems that endurance training in morning and evening can have positive effects on asprosin, leptin, insulin resistance and appetite index. However, training in the evening seems to have more positive effects on these factors.
