Author(s): Shiva Shahrokhian*, Abdul Hamid Habibi and Saeed Shakerian
Background: Obesity, insulin resistance and myostatin levels are known to be risk factors for breast cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nonlinear resistance training on serum myostatin levels and insulin resistance in women with breast cancer.
Methods: In the present quasi experimental study, 20 women with breast cancer were selected by random sampling from patients referred to Imam Hassan Chemotherapy Center Dezful, Iran and randomly selected in the group of resistance training with non-linear training and control groups. Exercise intervention included 12 weeks of resistance training, 3 sessions per week and each training session including training of different muscle groups with 40%-90% maximum repetition was performed. Fasting blood sampling was performed 48 hours before and after the intervention period. Dependen.. Read More»
