Metabolic syndrome is a group of metabolic risk factors whose combination significantly contributes to the development of the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, stroke, some cancers and is a clear indicator of morbidity rate. The aim of this study was to identify physical activity programs that can successfully influence the reduction of risk factors in metabolic syndrome of the elderly. Subjects were aged between 60 and 80 years, had three of five signs of metabolic syndrome, and were randomly divided into three groups of 20 subjects. The first group conducted a continuous cycling ergometer (55% VOmax), the second group a physical activity strength program and the third was a control group. Before and after the experimental treatment body composition, biochemical parameters, functional parameters, cardiovascular functions, metabolic and hematological system were determined. Significant differences between control and experimental groups were determined using MANOVA. The training effects of the experimental and control groups were determined using the ANOVA for repeated measurements with Bonfferoni correction. The results showed that a physical activity program of strength has a better effect on disease regulation in the elderly with metabolic syndrome than a moderate-intensity physical activity program which also has a significant change but in less variables.
代谢综合征是一组代谢危险因素，其组合显著增加了心血管疾病、糖尿病、中风、某些癌症的风险，并且是发病率的明确指标。本研究的目的是确定能够成功影响老年人代谢综合征危险因素降低的身体活动方案。受试者年龄在 60 至 80 岁之间，有五个代谢综合征迹象中的三个，并随机分为三组，每组 20 名受试者。第一组进行连续循环测力计（55% VOmax），第二组进行体力活动强度方案，第三组为对照组。在实验治疗前后，测定身体成分、生化参数、功能参数、心血管功能、代谢和血液系统。使用 MANOVA 确定对照组和实验组之间的显著差异。使用重复测量的 ANOVA 分析实验和对照组的训练效果，并使用 Bonfferoni 校正。结果表明，与中等强度的身体活动方案相比，力量训练方案对代谢综合征老年人的疾病调节具有更好的效果，后者也有显著变化，但变量较少。
