Abstract: The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for improvement of physical fitness and prevention of cardiovascular diseases and lifestyle related diseases in middle – aged male office workers by analyzing the effect of 12 week combined exercise on physical fitness and blood lipid in male office workers. Methods/Statistical analysis: This study was conducted on 12 week middle-aged male office workers divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group was performed for 60 minutes including the warming up and cooled down three times a week for 12 weeks. The treatment program of the combined exercise group was performed for 60 minutes including warming up and cool down for 12 weeks, three times a week. The warming up and cool down were conducted for 10 minutes each with a focus on stretching. This exercise was performed for 20 minutes on the treadmill and 20 minutes on the lower body and upper body strength. The PASW 22.0 Statistical Program was used for pre-scan and post-mortem data to determine 12-week therapeutic effects. Technical statistics were proposed for each measurement period and applied by a two-way 2 – RGRM ANOVA to find interactions of treatment effects. The level of significance is set to 0.05. Findings: Grip strength indicated that the interaction effect(F=75.839, p=.001) between the two groups was significant and Standing long jump also showed significant interactions(F=1786.886, p=.001). 20m Round trip run noted that the interaction(F=9.474, p=.006) between the two groups was significant (p<05). TC indicated that the interaction effect(F=5.875, p=.026) between the two groups was significant and TG also showed significant interactions(F=7.117, p=.016). HDL indicated that the interaction effect(F=50.689, p=.001) between the two groups was significant but LDL not showed significant interactions(F=2.771, p=.113). Improvements/Applications: With those results, the 12 week combined exercise program can contribute to improvement of physical fitness and blood lipid level of male office worker and it seems to have a positive effect on health care.
