Alterações metabólicas dos perfis glicídico e lipídico de homens adultos fisicamente ativos até 24h após a prática de atividade física de alta intensidade

Abstract

The regular practice of physical exercises brings a wide range of health benefits and has a significant impact on glycemic and lipidic profiles. Thus, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the glycemic profile and lipid profile of adult men before the training session of repeated sprints, immediately after, 2h and 24h after the exercise. The study was experimental, non-randomized, with a sample consisting of 10 adult male subjects (22.8 ± 2.3 years). An anthropometric analysis was carried out and the level of physical activity of the subjects was measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). The biochemical markers analyzed were glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol and direct HDL. Difference (η2p: 0.498) was observed in the glucose level at the pre-exercise, 2h and 24h after the exercise in relation to the moment after the exercise, and in the values of cholesterol significant variation after the exercise and 24h after (η2p: 0.186). No significant change was observed in HDL (η2p: 0.045) and triglycerides (η2p: 0.137) levels. In view of the results, we can indicate, therefore, that high-intensity physical activity influences glucose and cholesterol concentrations, but that more investigative studies are needed.
