Comparison the Effect Of Acute Resistance Exercise With Different Volume On plasma Interleukin-6 Response In Active Female Students

The aim of this study was to compare the effect of acute resistance exercise at different volume on plasma IL-6 response in active females. 10 active female student (age=25±50 yrs., Height= 164.10±3.58, weight= 61±125 Kg) with no resistance training experience, participated to cross-over design study. Subjects complete two acute resistance exercise sessions with different volumes (single set vs three sets), but same intensity (10RM) and rest interval between sets (2 min) with one week intervals between sessions. Resistance exercise sessions included 6 full body exercises. All sets performed to repetition failure. Two hours prior to exercises, participants consumed a standardized breakfast after an overnight fast. Blood samples collected pre- and immediately post exercise, and 24 hours post exercise. Blood samples was analyzed with Eliza Method. Results show that there was not significance difference (p< 0.05) between pre and immediately post and 24 hours post exercise in plasma IL-6 concentrations. Also, there was no significance difference (p< 0.05) between two groups in plasma IL-6 concentrations. This result indicated that Acute resistance exercise with moderate intensities can't change plasma IL-6 levels in active subjects. Also, volume of resistance exercise (single set & three sets) had no effect on plasma IL-6 levels in active female subject.
