This study investigated the effects of whole-body circuit training using a weighted vest on plasma resistin, cardiovascular disease risk factors, and cardiorespiratory fitness for normal-weight obese women. In this study, thirty- six women were divided into three groups: Weighted Vest Circuit Training (WVCT) (n = 12), Body Weight (BWCT) Control (CON) 12). Whole-body was conducted times week eight weeks to compare analyze before after training. Although there no significant baseline difference between groups regarding skeletal muscle mass, it significantly increased WVCT group weeks. percent body fat decreased BWCT groups, when these two compared that control group. Moreover, displayed decrease in showing from CON The showed IL-6, whereas increase. VO2max post-training group, differences None changes hs-CRP, yet hs-CRPs conclusion, efficiently improves composition, cardiopulmonary fitness, reducing factors
