Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of home training with app on metabolic syndrome risk factors and atherogenic index in on obese middle aged women. It was carried out to present as an intervention method for improving obesity in the pandemic era of COVID-19. The subjects of this study were 33 obese middle aged women, AHTG(n=15) and CG(n=18). Home training using the app for 8 weeks was conducted 3 times a week. The results of this study as follow, metabolic syndrome risk factors was WC(p<.001) significantly decreased, HDL-C(p<.05) significantly increased and atherogenic index was LDL-C/HDL-C(p<.01) significantly increased in the AHTG. In the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, PA plays an important role in alleviating the severe COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to its ameliorating effects on several chronic diseases. The possibility of home training using an app is an effective intervention method for preventing obesity and metabolic syndrome.
