Abstract

Introduction
Obesity, a public health problem is growing [S1]in prevalence over the recent decade. One morbidity[S2] associated with obesity is cardiovascular disease (CVD) which is invariably related to dyslipidaemia. The purpose of the present study is to examine the effect of walking exercise in order to reduce the risk of (CVD) in sedentary obese girls.
Materials and Methods
Twenty untrained obese (BMI>30) girls with age 22.00 ± 1.50 years volunteer took [S3]place in this research and then they were randomly divided in two groups (Control: n=10 Experimental: n=10). At first and after 2 months HDL-c, LDL-c and BMI were assessed[S4]. Then the experimental group started to do exercise programme. The data by[S5] unpaired- t-test at the level of pResults
The study finding showed that reduced [S6]BMI (p=0.001), LDL-c (p=0.006)significantly decreased but HDL-c (p=0.004) significantly increased in exercise[S7] group.
Conclusion
This study demonstrated that a programme of regular physical activity such as walking exercise significantly can[S8] change the lipoprotein's metabolism in body and reduce the risk of (CVD) in obese girls.
