Resumo633 sedentary women (47±11 yrs, 163±7 cm; 92±18kg; 45±4 body fat) were assigned to a control group (C), an exercise group (E); or, a high carbohydrate or a high protein diet group for 10‐weeks. Diets consisted of 1,200 kcal/d for 1‐wk and 1,600 kcal/d for 9 wks. Diets were 55% CHO, 15% P, and 30% F (HC) or 7‐15% CHO, 55‐63% P, and 30% F (HP). Subjects participated in the Curves fitness program 3‐d per wk. At 0 & 10‐wks, subjects donated fasting blood samples and had measurements determined. Data are presented as means ± SD from baseline at 10‐wks for the E, HC, and HP groups, respectively. Significant time and/or group x time effects (n=548) were observed in changes in total cholesterol (‐0.0±20; ‐1.8±18; ‐3.5±15 %), LDL‐c (‐1.4±22; ‐2.0±21; ‐3.2±21 %), HDL‐c c (0.9±10; ‐1.7±11; ‐2.2±8 %), and triglycerides (11±41; ‐6.2±34; 3.0±39 %). No differences were observed in glucose (0.3±20; 0.2±15; ‐1.6±17 %) or cholesterol:HDL ratio (‐0.6±13; 3.1±20; 1.7±17 %). Waist(‐1.2±5; ‐2.7±7; ‐3.2±7 %) and hip (‐0.1±5; ‐2.5±4; ‐2.4±5 %) measurements decreased with diet groups experiencing greater effects (n=586). Resting HR (‐3.3±13; ‐3.7±14; ‐2.9±15 %), SBP (‐0.4±13; ‐2.2±12; ‐1.9±12 %), and DBP (‐0.8±13; ‐2.8±12; ‐0.8±13 %) decreased in all groups (n=633). Bench press (10.5±17; 8.4±18; 7.4±15 %), leg press (10.4±20; 10.3±18; 10.3±20 %), and aerobic capacity (14.8±95; 7.9±15; 12.8±50 %) were increased in all groups (n=490).
