Abstract This study aimed to analyze influences of combined exercise on improvement of body composition, serum lipid and renal function in overweight and obese adolescent. The subjects were 14 obese adolescents (7 exercise group and 7 control group). Exercise group carried out combined exercise including aerobic exercise and resistance exercise for 12 weeks. For both exercise group and control group, body composition, serum blood and renal function before and after 12 weeks program were measured. The results of comparative analysis are as follows; Weight, BMI, and body fat were significant differences between groups and significantly decreased after combined exercise program. Skeletal muscle rate showed significant difference between groups and increased after 12 weeks of exercise program. Creatinine before and after carrying out combined exercise program did not show significant difference between groups. Based on above results, it appeared that combined exercise including walking and band exercise gave positive influences on body composition in adolescent with overweight and obesity. And it is thought that combined exercise did not affect creatinine. But we know that overweight and obese adolescents do not participate in an exercise program can be increased creatinine.
