Description
Summary:[Display omitted] •Combined training was beneficial for body composition HIV-infected people.•Combined training did not modify lipid profile and cytokines levels.•Reduction of body fat was not accompanied by metabolic changes.•Patients with lipodystrophy showed reduction of android fat when compared to non-lipodystrophic. The aim of this study was to conduct a randomized clinical trial to assess the effects of 16 weeks of combined training on body composition, lipid profile, adiponectin, C-reactive protein (CRP), and leptin levels in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). Fifty-eight HIV-infected individuals were randomized into a training group (T) or a control group (C). Combined training consisted of aerobic and resistance exercises performed at the same training session, applied at a frequency of three times a week for a total of 16 weeks. Waist circumference, body mass, body fat percentage (%fat), fat mass, lipid profile, adiponectin, CRP, and leptin levels were measured pre- and post-training in both groups. Sixteen weeks of combined training decreased (P
