Inroduction & Objective: Anabolic-androgenic steroids popular among athletes have many beneficial and harmful effects on the body. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explain the effect of 8 hours of moderate intensity resistance training with licorice and Boldenone extract on sperm cells, Sertoli and Leydig testicular tissue of male rats.
Materials and Methods: For the present experimental study, 40 8-week-old male rats weighing 20-220 g were selected and divided into 8 groups of 5, including healthy control, resistance training, and bulldon, Licorice, Boldenone + Licorice, Boldenone, Resistance Training, resistance training + licorice and resistance training + Boldenone + licorice were divided. Then, the resistance training groups performed moderate-intensity training 8 times a week and three times a week, the Boldenone groups received 5 (mg / kg) Boldenone once a week, and the licorice groups received weekly exercise. They received 500 (mg / kg) licorice three times. 48 hours after the last training session, rats were anesthetized by injection of ketamine (70 mg / kg) and xylarine (10 mg / kg) and after incision in the anterior part of the abdominal wall, testicular tissue was removed and tested Stored in refrigerator-80. Finally Data were analyzed using three-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc tests.
Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference between the means of spermatoid, sertoli and testicular tissue of male rats in different groups.
Conclusion: According to the results of the present study and the effect of exercise and licorice, it is recommended that athletes use these exercises and licorice in consultation with a physician.
