Values are expressed as mean ± SD.

P1 and P2 value, difference compared with the value at the beginning of the study within groups (paired t-test).

P3 value, mean difference of changes between the two groups (independent t-test).

P4 value, Based on ANCOVA model regressing change from baseline on the treatment group, baseline value of the outcome, sex, age, MET and energy.
