Abstract :
Exercise is known to increase the production of free radicals and reduce anti free radicals capability, thus, damaging the tissues. This research was conducted in order to understand the effects of aerobic exercise towards the erythrocyte osmotic fragility. The design of this research was posttest only control group, involving white male rats; the Wistar strain Rattus norvegicus as samples. The aerobic exercise was conducted on the tested animals by running on a treadmill three times a week for eight weeks. The data were analysed with t test. As derived from the results of this research, aerobic exercises produced effect on erythrocyte osmotic fragility (p < 0.05). This showed that the aerobic exercises had a potential upon the erythrocyte osmotic fragility. Therefore, to avoid such condition, exercise should be done according to accurate dose and monitoring of the dietary aspect, especially the free anti-radical elements, such as vitamin C and E- containing food, is necessary.
