  The effect of eight weeks of combined training on Copeptin levels and body fat percentage of obese women Abstract Introduction: Obesity is related to diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, liver disease, kidney failure, and various types of cancer. The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of eight weeks of combined exercises on copeptin levels and body fat percentage of obese women. Materials and Methods: In this semi-experimental study, which was conducted with a pre-test-post-test design, 30 obese women (body mass index above 30 kg/m2) with an age range of 20 to 35 years were selected as available and in 2 groups of 15 people were combined and controlled. Blood samples were collected in two pre-test and post-test stages (after 8 weeks of training). The training protocol consisted of 2 weeks of combined exercises performed three sessions per week in two sections of rope training and resistance training with elastic. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance with repeated measures. Results: The results showed that combined exercise significantly increased the copeptin of obese women (P <0.001). Other results also showed that combined exercise significantly reduced the percentage of body fat in obese women (P <0.0001). Discussion and Conclusion: In general, the present results indicated that obese women by using combined exercises can probably prevent the inflammatory stress caused by sports activities and its subsequent consequences.
