The effect of post exercise (aerobic and resistance) milk consumption on weight loss in female students

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of post exercise (aerobic and resistance) milk intake on weight loss in female students. 80 obese students who were more than 10 kg overweight were studied (specified by body composition analyzer). After that 40 subjects were randomly assigned in two groups including aerobic and resistance milk consumption and aerobic resistance that 30 students finished the protocols. The subjects had some milk immediately and one hour after aerobic, resistance training. Exercise protocol consisted of six weeks, three days a week. The data analysis using t-independent test suggested that exercise milk group had a significant improvement in weight loss parameters including Body Fat Percent (p=0.04), Total Body Fat (p=0.03), Waist-Hip ratio (p=0.03), and Muscle Mass (p=0.002) compared to exercise group. Conclusively, aerobic-resistance exercises followed by milk intake seem to be effective in body composition and also improve the physical health status.
