Effect of Different Exercise Types Upon Blood Zinc and Copper Levels

Abstract

This study focused on investigating the effects of different types of exercise models (power endurance, maximal strength, and interval running) on the copper and zinc levels in blood. All male twenty four basketball players voluntarily accepted to be the subjects of this study. Subjects were put in three different groups according to their maximal strength (MS) (n=8), intermittent running power endurance (PE) (n=8) and interval run (n=8). Serum copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) levels were calculated in accordance with atomic emission technique in blood samples gathered from the groups before and after training program. The difference in blood zinc levels pre and post exercise were found to be statistically significant (p<0.05) for all of the groups. The copper levels of all the groups which were calculated before and after the exercise didn’t reveal a statistically significant change (p< 0.05). In the end power endurance group was better among the others at saving the zinc status of the body.
