The present study examined the effects of dietary education and exercise treatment on blood lipid concentrations and body composition among 19 hyperlipidemic (total cholesterol ≥ 220 mg/dl or LDL-cholesterol140 mg/dl) female volunteers. The subjects were divided into 2 groups and attended different health education programs regarding diet and exercise treatment for three months. Both of the group I (n=11) and group II (n=8) exercised by aerobic dance for 60 minutes once a week and walked with the aim of more than ten thousands steps. In addition, the group II regularly pedaled an ergometer for 40 minutes three times a week. Measurements were performed at the initiation of the program and three months after that. In the group I, the mean values of weight, body mass index, and fat mass significantly decreased after the program. In addition to these parameters, mean hip circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressures also significantly decreased in the group II. The mean values of total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol, and fasting plasma glucose significantly decreased in both groups. In addition, mean β-lipoprotein significantly decreased in the group I, while mean HDL-cholesterol significantly increased in the group II. These results suggest that moderate intensity selfmonitored exercise is effective for improving serum lipids and body composition
