The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of 8 weeks resistance versus endurance training on plasma visfatin in middle-aged men. Twenty eight healthy middle-aged men (age ranges of 30 - 52) with no period of training in the last 6 months, who are not suffering from cardiovascular and metabolic diseases with will be randomly allocated into three groups: control group (10 = n), resistance training group (9 = n) and endurance training group (9 = n). Initially the percentage of fat, plasma visfatin concentrations, waist to hip ratio and blood pressure will be measured in all these subjects. Then the resistance training will be performed 3 days per week at an intensity corresponding to 65–80% of one-repetition maximum, 8-12 repetitions and 2-4 sets for 8 weeks, Endurance training group, also, underwent an 8-week intervention, with a frequency of 3 days per week at an intensity corresponding to 65 – 80% maximum heart rate for 20 – 34 min. At the end of the interventions fat content, plasma concentrations visfatin, waist to hip ratio and blood pressure will be measured again and compared between the three groups. Comparisons will be made before and after the interventions in each group as well.
