CIABATTARI, O et al. The Effect of the Aerobic Training on Morphological and Histochemical Characteristics of Tibial Anterior Muscle in Rats Fed with High Fat Diet. Int. J. Morphol. [online]. 2008, vol.26, n.4, pp. 1053-1058. ISSN 0717-9502.  doi: 10.4067/S0717-95022008000400041.

The aim of this study was to investígate the effect of high fat diet and different frequencies of swimming programs in the tibial anterior muscle in male Wistar rats. In conclussion, the aerobic training during two days/week and five days/week caused injuries in muscle fibers and the high fat diet did not cause statically significant results compared to normal diet.
