Ross, Robert, John Rissanen, Heather Pedwell, Jennifer
Clifford, and Peter Shragge. Influence of diet and exercise on
skeletal muscle and visceral adipose tissue in men. J. Appl. Physiol. 81(6): 2445-2455, 1996.
The
effects of diet only (DO) and diet combined with either aerobic (DA) or
resistance (DR) exercise on subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), visceral
adipose tissue (VAT), lean tissue (LT), and skeletal muscle (SM) tissue were evaluated in 33 obese men (DO, n = 11; DA, n = 11; DR,
n = 11). All tissues were measured by
using a whole body multislice magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) model.
Within each group, significant reductions were observed for body
weight, SAT, and VAT (P < 0.05). The
reductions in body weight (~10%) and SAT (~25%) and VAT volume (~35%) were not different between groups
(P > 0.05). For all
treatments, the relative reduction in VAT was greater than in SAT
(P < 0.05). For the DA and DR groups
only, the reduction in abdominal SAT (~27%) was greater
(P < 0.05) than that
observed for the gluteal-femoral region (~20%). Conversely, the
reduction in VAT was uniform throughout the abdomen regardless of
treatment (P > 0.05). MRI-LT and
MRI-SM decreased both in the upper and lower body regions for the DO group alone (P < 0.05). Peak
O2 uptake (liters) was
significantly improved (~14%) in the DA group as was muscular
strength (~20%) in the DR group (P < 0.01). These findings indicate that DA and DR result in a greater
preservation of MRI-SM, mobilization of SAT from the abdominal region,
by comparison with the gluteal-femoral region, and improved functional
capacity when compared with DO in obese men.
