Objective
This study assessed the changes in red blood cell total phospholipid (RBC‐TPL) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) fatty acid (FA) composition in response to 12 weeks of exercise training in South African women with obesity and the associations with changes in cardiometabolic risk factors.
Methods
Previously sedentary women were randomized into control (n = 15) or exercise (n = 20)...
Key points

Black African women, despite high gluteal subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and less visceral fat, are less insulin sensitive than their white counterparts.
Exercise training improved...
