Effects of exercise and lifestyle modification on fitness, insulin resistance, skeletal muscle oxidative phosphorylation and intramyocellular lipid content in obese children and adolescents

Abstract: Background Obesity is associated with poor fitness and adverse metabolic consequences in children. Objective To investigate how exercise and lifestyle modification may improve fitness and insulin sensitivity in this population. Design and Subjects RCT, 21 obese (BMI ≥ 95%ile) subjects, ages 10 to 17 years. Methods Subjects were given standardized healthful lifestyle advice for 8 weeks. In addition, they were randomized to an in-home supervised exercise intervention (n = 10) or control group (n=11). Mea… Show more

“…38 Improvement in fasting insulin and IR can occur after exercise training in the absence of improvements in weight or body composition. 41 Short-term interventions may improve IR by acting peripherally to improve insulin sensitivity in the muscle, whereas long-term interventions may improve body composition and improve IR through other mechanisms. 62 Because our results suggest the length of the intervention may not significantly influence insulin response to training, further research is needed to thoroughly evaluate this hypothesis in children.…”

“…Having strategies in place is possible to improve the quality of life, reduce comorbidities and complications in the short and long term, and modification of lifestyle 5,6 . The benefits of aerobic exercise in obese children and adolescents have been documented and it has being associated with lower morbidity and mortality [7][8][9][10] . In particular, they are known for promoting the weight control, reduction of body fat and maintenance of lean body mass 7 , as well as, the improvement of glycemic profile 8 and lipid [8][9][10] .…”
