“…In contrast to these invasive approaches, exercise training may serve as a noninvasive strategy to reduce excessive cardiac adipose tissue. Until now, few studies have investigated the effect of exercise on epicardial and pericardial adipose tissue mass and the existing literature is inconsistent, to our knowledge . For instance, it is unclear whether exercise training, both endurance and resistance training, facilitates changes in both epicardial and pericardial adipose tissue.…”

IMPORTANCE Epicardial and pericardial adipose tissues are emerging as important risk factors for cardiovascular disease, and there is a growing interest in discovering strategies to reduce the accumulation of fat in these depots. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether a 12-week endurance or resistance training intervention regulates epicardial and pericardial adipose tissue mass. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Secondary analysis of a randomized, assessor-blinded clinical trial initiated on August 2016 and completed April 2018. This single-center, community-based study included 50 physically inactive participants with abdominal obesity. INTERVENTIONS Participants were randomized to a supervised high-intensity interval endurance training (3 times a week for 45 minutes), resistance training (3 times a week for 45 minutes), or no exercise (control group). MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Change in epicardial and pericardial adipose tissue mass assessed by magnetic resonance imaging, based on a prespecified secondary analysis plan including 3 of 5 parallel groups. RESULTS Of 50 participants (mean [SD] age, 41 [14] years, 10 men [26%]; mean [SD] body mass index [calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared], 32 [5]), 39 [78%] completed the study. Endurance training and resistance training reduced epicardial adipose tissue mass by 32% (95% CI, 10%-53%) and 24% (95% CI, 1%-46%), respectively, compared with the no exercise control group (56% [95% CI, 24%-88%]; P = .001 and 48% [95% CI, 15%-81%]; P < .001, respectively). While there was a nonsignificant reduction in pericardial adipose tissue mass after endurance training (11% [95% CI, −5% to 27%]; P = .17), resistance training significantly reduced pericardial adipose tissue mass by 31% (95% CI, 16%-47%; P < .001) when compared with the no exercise control group. Compared with the no exercise control group, there was an increase in left ventricular mass by endurance (20 g [95% CI, 11%-30%]; P < .001) and resistance training (18 g [95% CI, 8%-28%]; P < .001). Other cardiometabolic outcomes remained unchanged after the 12-week trial period. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In individuals with abdominal obesity, both endurance and resistance training reduced epicardial adipose tissue mass, while only resistance training reduced pericardial adipose tissue mass. These data highlight the potential preventive importance of different exercise modalities as means to reduce cardiac fat in individuals with abdominal obesity.

“…More importantly, resistance and aerobic exercise interventions have shown to reduce EAT in those individuals with abdominal obesity, but only high-intensity resistance exercise has been capable of decreasing PAT ( 43 , 44 ). Overall, exercise intensity prescribed was insufficient and did not meet the recommendations for weight loss (225-420 min/week) ( 89 ), and the change in CAT after 12-24 weeks of exercise was <10% (~1 mm) ( 90 – 93 ) except for the high-intensity interventions ( 43 , 94 ). In addition, only three studies utilized resistance-based exercise for 12 weeks ( 44 , 95 ) and 3 weeks ( 43 ), two utilized a high-intensity circuit format ( 43 , 44 ), and only supervised interventions resulted in large reductions in CAT volume ( 43 , 44 ).…”

“…The intervention was conducted in young adult females with obesity (BMI=34.13 ± 3.16 kg/m 2 ) and included three RT sessions per week targeting large muscle groups ( 43 ). Another program targeting primarily small muscle groups (e.g., arm curls, leg extensions, leg curls, triceps extensions, seated row and leg press) allowed for a rather modest CAT (~1 mm, thickness) reduction ( 95 ). Thus, resistance-based exercise programs of higher intensity appear to be key for CAT loss.…”

Vigorous-intensity exercise as a modulator of cardiac adipose tissue in women with obesity: a cross-sectional and randomized pilot study

Cardiac adipose tissue (CAT) has become an important target for the reduction of disease risk. Supervised exercise programs have shown potential to "significantly" reduce CAT; however, the impact of different exercise modalities is not clear, and the relationships between CAT, physical activity (PA) levels and fitness (PFit) remain unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to analyze the relationships between CAT, PA and PFit, and to explore the effects of different exercise modalities in a group of women with obesity. A total of 26 women (age: 23.41 ± 5.78 years-old) were enrolled in the cross-sectional study. PA, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, body composition and CAT were evaluated. The pilot intervention included 16 women randomized to a control (CON, n=5), high intensity interval training (HIIT, n = 5) and high-intensity circuit training (HICT, n=6) groups. Statistical analysis showed negative correlations between CAT and vigorous PA (VPA) (rs=-0.41, p=0.037); and between percent body fat (%BF), fat mass (FM), and all PA levels (rs=-0.41– -0.68, p<0.05); while muscle mass was positively associated with moderate-to-vigorous PA, and upper-body lean mass with all PA levels (rs =0.40–0.53, p<0.05). The HICT intervention showed significant improvements (p<0.05) in %BF, FM, fat free mass, and whole-body and lower extremities lean mass and strength after three weeks; however, only leg strength and upper extremities’ FM improved significantly compared to CON and HICT. In conclusion, although all types of PA showed a positive influence on body fat content, only VPA significantly impacted on CAT volume. Moreover, three weeks of HICT induced positive changes in PFit in women with obesity. Further research is needed to explore VPA levels and high-intensity exercise interventions for short- and long-term CAT management.

“…The intensity of exercise was set as 40% of the one-repetition maximum (1RM) for 1–6 weeks, and 50% of 1RM for 7–12 weeks by applying indirect equation (1RM=weight lifted+[weight lifted×0.025×repetition]) for the estimation of 1RM. Resistance circuit training program in Table 2 was modified from the exercise program developed by Mayorga-Vega et al (2013) and Rosety et al (2016) .…”

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of resistance circuit training on health-related physical fitness, plasma lipid and adiponectin in obese college students. Twenty male college students participated in this study and they were randomly divided into the sedentary group (SG, n = 10) and the resistance circuit training group (RCG, n = 10). The exercise group underwent the resistance circuit training program for 60 min 3 times a week for 12 weeks, while the sedentary group continued activities of daily living as usual. The levels of health-related fitness, blood lipid, and adiponectin were measured twice before and after the experiment. To analyze the statistically significance of collected data, Two-way repeated measure analysis of variance was used to determine the changes in the groups over the training period. A paired <i>t</i>-test was used to verify the difference within each group, and an independent <i>t</i>-test was used to verify the difference between the groups. In this study, the body composition including body fat mass, percent body fat and body mass index were significantly decreased in RCG compared to those in SG, and the health-related fitness showed a significant difference between RCG and SG. In addition, RCG positively modulated blood concentration of total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. However, plasma adiponectin concentration did not show any significant differences between the two groups. Therefore, the present data suggested that resistance circuit training might be regulator to improve health-related physical fitness and decrease the level of plasma lipid in obese male college students.
