IMAT reduction was associated with favorable lipoprotein size shifts in men; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Does aerobic exercise-induced reduction in thigh intermuscular adipose tissue correlate with improvements in lipoprotein particle size in sedentary, dyslipidemic, overweight subjects?
In overweight dyslipidemic men, exercise-induced reductions in thigh intermuscular adipose tissue are strongly associated with favorable increases in HDL and LDL particle size, independent of visceral adiposity changes.
Durheim et al. (2008) studied this question.
