Abstract

Abstract: Weight training on muscles will affect protein metabolism. No studies have been conducted regarding the effect of weight training on keratinin, urea, and total protein levels. This study was an experiment with the pre and post-test group method on 22 male people who met the criteria at the Padang State University fitness center. The results showed that there was an average increase in creatinine levels, where the average value of creatinine before weight training was 0.823 mg/dL and after weight training was 0.959 mg/dL. The total protein pretest value was 8.33 ± 1.72 g/dL while there was a decrease in the average posttest amounting to 6.72 ± 1.54 g/dL. The average pretest urea level was 16.95 ± 9.93 mg/dL, while the posttest average increased by 24.68 ± 16.79 mg/dL. It can be concluded that there is an effect of weight training on creatinine, urea and total protein levels with a p value <0.05.
