“…HDL2 has been thought to be the more variable subtraction of the two [14], but recently the HDL3 fraction was shown to fluctuate more than previously assumed [24], a finding which is supported by the present study. In healthy women, cross-sectional studies have shown that long-distance runners have a significantly higher concentration of HDL cholesterol compared to sedentary controls [12,13]. The lack of effect on HDL and HDL2 cholesterol in the present study may be explained by the fact that the pre-study levels in our patients were relatively high compared to other female Type 1 diabetic patients [23].…”

“…A signi®cant positive correlation was found between exercise volume and HDL cholesterol concentrations. In a large study, Moore, Hartung, Mitchell et al (1983) compared long-distance runners, joggers, and inactive women aged 24±58 years. The concentrations of HDL cholesterol was signi®cantly higher in the long-distance runners compared with joggers and inactive women.…”

“…74 Table 1 and Figure 2 summarize the many observational studies that have addressed the question of how exercise affects body fat. 19,[23][24][25][26][27][28]30,34,[75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85] These studies used skin-fold testing or hydrostatic weighing to measure the percent body fat of individuals participating in varying levels of exercise, ranging from sedentary individuals to competitive athletes. Training varied in intensity and duration, and included activities such as running, bicycling, swimming, gymnastics, ice skating, and weight lifting.…”
