We examined the effects of the independent and combined effects of Zataria Multiflora supplementation and circuit resistance training (CRT) on selected adipokines among postmenopausal women. Forty-eight postmenopausal women were divided into four groups: Exercise (EG, = 12), Zataria Multiflora (ZMG, = 12), exercise and Zataria Multiflora (ZMEG, = 12), and control (CG, = 12).
