Method Twenty inactive males (BMI 27.67 ± 0.88 kg/m2 , age 49.15 ± 2.58 years) participated in an eight-week wererandomly assigned to one of three intervention groups (combined (CT), resistance (RT), and aerobic (AT)) exercisemodalities to assess within-subject and between group changes in glycolipid profile. Data were analyzed usingrepeated measures ANCOVA.Result Pre-post mean values of body fat percentage (%BF), area under the curve (AUC), low density lipoprotein (LDL),high density lipoprotein (HDL) and total cholesterol (TC) decreased in all three groups. The main effect of exercisemodality on the AUC (F (2, 26) = 10.577, P = 0.001, η2 = 0.569) was significant. Post-hoc analyses revealed that the RTgroup (-30.653 ± 6.766, p = 0.001) with 11.53% and the CT group (M = -0.896, SE = 3.347, P = 0.015) with 3.79% exhib-ited significantly greater reductions in AUC compared to the AT group. LDL levels showed significant differentbetween groups (F (2, 26) = 6.33, p = 0.009, η2 = 0.442), specially significantly 3.7% lowered in AT (MD = 4.783, SE = 1.563,P = 0.002) and 3.79% lower in CT (MD = 4.57, SE = 1.284, P = 0.008) groups compared to the RT group.
