The study aims to evaluate changes in serum enzyme levels after exercise in trained and untrained individuals.
Participants included twenty-eight healthy trained and untrained men and eleven untrained women.
Subjects exercised on a treadmill and in various athletic events, assessing serum enzyme levels pre-exercise and post-exercise.
Five specific enzymes were measured at intervals after exercise to determine peak levels.
Untrained subjects showed the greatest increase in serum enzyme levels after exercise, while trained athletes exhibited the least.
The peak enzyme levels occurred 5 minutes post-exercise with significant increases in transaminases after all exercise forms.
Aldolase and lactic dehydrogenase exhibited minimal changes, while malic dehydrogenase showed moderate increases.
