        Introduction: Overweight and obesity are associated with increased inflammatory conditions and metabolic disorders. A therapeutic agent that can suppress metabolic and immune disorders may effectively ameliorate parallel abnormalities in obesity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of combined training and caffeine supplementation on Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), TLR4, and dectin-1 in obese men. Materials and Methods: In a semi-experimental trial, 44 obese men were purposefully and accessibly selected and randomly divided into four groups: 1) control, 2) combined training, 3) caffeine and 4) combined training -caffeine. Subjects received 6 mg of caffeine per kilogram of body weight daily for 12 weeks. The combined training program include circular resistance training (3 times with 14 repetitions at 50% of one maximum repetition and 30 seconds rest between each station) and aerobic exercise (70% maximum heart rate for 30 minutes) was performed 3 sessions per week for 12 weeks. The combined training program was performed for 12 weeks and 3 sessions per week. Data were analyzed with covariance analysis and Tukey post hoc test at the p<0.05.Results: The results showed that 12 weeks of combined training, caffeine and combined training - caffeine significantly reduced serum levels of TLR2, TLR4 and Dectin-1 (P=0.001). The reduce of serum levels of TLR2, TLR4 and Dectin-1 were significant in the combined training compared to caffeine group (P=0.001). the effect of interactive combined training with caffeine was more than supplementation and training alone.Conclusion: According to the findings, it is suggested that combined training intervention with caffeine consumption be used in order to reduce its inflammatory effects associated with obesity.
