摘要：The intake and energy expenditure resulting in energy balance, when it is unbalanced, can take accumulate or reduction of fat reserves corporal. To ascertain the effect of a calorie-restricted diet associated with physical activity on body composition in women. The study was conducted with eight individuals, all female (age 30.25 ± 6.73 years, 1.62 ± 0.06 cm). Anthropometric measurements were performed according to protocol Petroski (1999). To measure the height, we used a stadiometer accurate to 0.1 cm for body mass (BM) a balance of 100 g precision. From the height and BM was obtained BMI. To measure the perimeters used a tape measure anthropometric fiberglass, and obtained the waist to hip ratio (WHR). To estimate the body density (BD) was used equation Jackson and J Pollock (1980). From the BD was obtained the fat percentage using the equation of Siri (1961). Descriptive analysis were used the mean and standard deviation for the presentation of results. The paired Student t test was used to compare variables before and after 12 weeks. The results can be observed a significant decrease in body mass, fat percentage, BMI and WHR. Furthermore, we observed a significant increase in lean body mass. Key words: Diet, Physical activity, Body composition.
