  "abstract": "Increased oxidative stress is linked to a sedentary lifestyle and plays a role in the emergence of a number of chronic illnesses. One important biomarker for evaluating oxidative damage and lipid peroxidation in the body is malondialdehyde (MDA). One possible non-pharmacological strategy to lower oxidative stress levels is resistance exercise. This study sought to ascertain how resistance training affected MDA levels, a biomarker of oxidative stress. Experimental and control groups before and after were used in this experimental study. Individuals were selected through random sampling, and after their selection, two groups were formed: the treatment group received a resistance training intervention, and there was no activity in the control group, only sitting. The study involved twenty-two healthy women with a sedentary lifestyle. Study participants were between 18 and 26 years of age. Data collection took place over two days, beginning with gathering information about the subjects' characteristics. Before the physical exercises were performed, blood samples were collected to determine baseline (pre-test) values. After then, the participants warmed up. Then, the subjects performed resistance training according to their group. The exercises performed included resistance training to exhaustion at maximum intensity. After the resistance training, blood samples were taken as post-test data. According to the study results, the MDA level in the experimental group was 1.81±0.58 before the intervention and 1.15±0.43 after the intervention, this testifies that acute resistance training significantly reduces MDA levels in women who live a sedentary lifestyle (p<0.05). In the control group, the MDA level was 1.81±0.71 before and 1.89±1.23 after the intervention, indicating no statistically significant difference (p>0.05). Conclusions: Thus, it may be said that acute resistance training can reduce MDA levels, a biomarker of oxidative stress. Resistance training can be recommended as an alternative exercise for people with a sedentary lifestyle to improve their health, particularly by reducing oxidative stress, which has adverse health effects.",
