Methods: A total of 16 volunteer women with an age mean of 30,81 ± 9,44 years and an age mean of 159,44 ± 6,61 cm were participated in the study. Blood samples of the participants were taken at the health facility while they were hungry before starting the exercise program. After applying the eight-week and 3 days a week exercise program, blood samples of subjects were taken again. The results which obtained from the study were analyzed with the SPSS 23.0 package program. In the analysis of the data, independent samples t test was applied to determine the difference between the groups. Results: As a result of the analyzes, while no significant difference was found between glucose and urea, creatine, total crystallinity, pre-test and post-test values of direct crystallization (p>0,05), body weight, BMI, chest circumference, waist circumference, waist circumference / height ratio, baseline area, and uric acid were significantly different between the pretest and posttest measurements (p<0,05). Conclusion: As a result of the study, it was observed that the eight-week exercise had differences in body weight, BMI, chest circumference, waist circumference, waist circumference, and baseline region and uric acid levels. It can be said that the exercise played an important role in the formation of this difference. Keywords: exercise, women, body composition, glucose, creatine, urea Copyright © The Author(s).

Emre Karaman, Muzaffer Selçuk, Vedat Çinar EFFECT OF EIGHT WEEKS EXERCISE ON BODY COMPOSITION AND SOME BLOOD VALUES IN WOMEN 1. Introduction The effect of exercise on biochemical parameters has become an upcoming research area. It has been shown with the researches that exercise has positive effects on fat and carbohydrate metabolism, body weight, moderate decrease in fat deposits (Tran and Weltmen, 1985). It has also been known for a long time that exercise has positively influenced overall health status, increasing physical competence, and playing an active role in the prevention of diseases (Kujala et al 1990, Russel et al. 1995). Increased body weight is a serious risk for hypertension. It is gassed that, hypertension is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (Judith et al. 2003). While aerobic and resistance exercises lead to increased lean body mass and decreased body fat percentage, it has been suggested that dietary programs applied with exercise are more effective in fixing body composition (Schwingshackl et al. 2014). Physical activity is an important function of living systems. It affects hematological and biochemical parameters as well as many systems. In humans, adaptation to exercise can play an important role in adaptation of cardiovascular activity and regulation of physiological response such as physical, physio, depending on the type, severity and duration of the exercise, there may be changes in hematological and biochemical parameters logical balance, like many other factors in hematological and biochemical levels Arslan et al. 1 , Baltacı et al. 1 . During and after intense exercise there may be changes in hematological and biochemical values due to differences in the participant’s training status, gender, age, environmental conditions and nutrition. Hematologic changes are observed in the athletes due to longterm exercises Beydağı et al. 1 3. With this study, it was aimed to determine whether the Body Composition and Some Blood Values influenced by Eight-Week Exercise in Women.
