The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effects of regional exercise program for abdominal muscles on body composition and serum lipids. For the sample some , male junior H.S.were selected voluntarily measuring their total skinfold fat of subscapular and triceps. Finally, 16 subjects were selected. Their average age was 14.63±1.09 years, and their percent age of body fat was more than 26. They perfomed regional exercise on abdominal muscles 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks. The following measurements were recorded before and after the exercise program: blood sampling from cubical vein to determine the level of cholesterol, triglyceride (TG), skinfold fat of subscapular, suprailiac, triceps, and pectoral regions of the subjects using clipper. Waist, hip, and buttock girth of the subjects were also recorded, and finally percent age of body fat was estimated using the method by Bioleau, Lohman and Slaughter (1985). The data were analyzed using t - student test. The result indicated that the regional exercise program for the abdominal muscles has a significant effect (p <0.05) on cholesterol, TG and skinfold fat of subscapular, suprialiace, abdomen, triceps, pectoral regions, and also on waist, hip, buttock girth, total body weight, body fat and percent age of body fat of the subjects. However, this type of exercise didnʹt have any significant effect on skinfold fat of biceps and lean body weight. Therefore, we can conclude that this specific regional exercise program for the abdominal muscles reduces fat of not only the region being exercised (abdominal), but also the other regions of the body, which werenʹt exercised. On the other hand, the results indicated that spot reduction doesnʹt work and fatty acids preferentially arenʹt released directly to a greater degree from the fat pads from the active muscles.
