| Objective: Menopause is associated with increased visceral adiposity and worsening cardiometabolic risk, and physically inactive postmenopausal women may be particularly vulnerable. This study aimed to examine the effects of 10 weeks of combined (aerobic–resistance) training on visceral adiposity indices LAP and VAI, as well as triglycerides (TG), in inactive postmenopausal women. Methods: This quasi-experimental study used a pretest–posttest design with a control group. A total of 24 inactive postmenopausal women were randomly assigned to a combined training group or a control group (n = 12 each). The training group completed 10 weeks of aerobic exercise at approximately 65–75% HRmax and resistance training at about 55–65% 1RM. Fasting blood samples were obtained at baseline and post-intervention, and LAP and VAI were calculated using anthropometric and lipid variables. Results: In the control group, LAP did not change significantly (p=0.117), whereas it decreased significantly in the training group (p=0.001), with a significant between-group difference in change (p=0.021). For VAI, the control group showed no significant change (p=0.379), while the training group demonstrated a significant reduction (p =0.001), and the between-group difference in change was significant (p=0.001). TG did not change significantly in the control group (p=0.231) but decreased significantly in the training group (p=0.001), with a significant between-group difference in change (p=0.003). Conclusion: Ten weeks of combined aerobic–resistance training improves visceral adiposity indices (LAP and VAI) and triglyceride levels in inactive postmenopausal women, supporting concurrent training as a practical non-pharmacological strategy to reduce cardiometabolic risk. | ||
