  Background: Aerobic training and green tea consumption affect fat metabolism via a change in several elements. Adropin is a unique hormone, which is related to fat metabolism. This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of eight weeks of aerobic training and green tea consumption on adropin and lipid profiles of overweight-obese women. Methods: 32 overweight-obese non-athletes (age: 20-40 years) were included in this study and divided into four groups (n=8 each group): 1) green tea and exercise, 2) green tea, 3) exercise, and 4) control. The exercise training program was three days a week, 60% to 70% of the maximum heart rate each session, for 8 weeks. The green tea supplement dose was one 500 mg capsule of green tea, consumed three days a week for 8 weeks. BMI as well as serum levels of adropin, total cholesterol, HDL, and LDL, were determined before and after the interventions. The collected data were analyzed via covariance test at a significance level of P<0.05. Results: 8 weeks of aerobic training and tea consumption had no significant effect on adropine, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels in overweight-obese women (p>0.05). However, 8 weeks of aerobic training and green tea supplementation had a significant beneficial effect on the LDL, HDL, BMI, and weight of overweight-obese women (p<0.05). Conclusion: 8 weeks of aerobic training and consumption of green tea significantly improved the weight, BMI, HDL, and LDL of the participants. Manuscript profile
