The purpose of the present study was to compare the modulation of plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) by high intensity aerobic training and low intensity aerobic training. The study is based on a literature review. Currently cardiovascular disease is the main cause of current worldwide death. However the adoption of simple changes in lifestyle can help reverse such framework. The regular aerobic exercise is highly related to reduction of risk of cardiovascular diseases and consequent increasing of HDL-C, nowadays considered an important variable in the prevention of such diseases. In fact, regular aerobic training modulates positively HDL-C plasma concentration, showing that performed at high intensity is more effective than low intensity in the modulation of plasma levels of HDL-C. Therefore, not only the aerobic character, as well as the intensity of work proved to be a key variable in this case
