Age 54.8 ± 10.2 56.4 ± 10.7 51.3 ± 10.7
BMI 31.4 ± 6.2 30.9 ± 6.1 31.1 ± 7.2
VO2max 26.9 ± 8.4 28.2 ± 9.7 29.5 ± 10.5
Fasting glucose 9.8 ± 4.4* 5.9 ± 0.5 5.0 ± 0.4
Fasting insulin 91.2 ± 8.9 88.2 ± 13.5 56.6 ± 8.3
HOMA1log 0.67 ± 0.07* 0.46 ± 0.05* 0.20 ± 0.05
2-h glucose (OGTT) 17.9 ± 5.5* 7.4 ± 2.4 5.5 ± 1.2
HbA1c 7.4 ± 1.8* 5.8 ± 0.3 5.5 ± 0.2

Data are mean ± standard deviation. BMI, body mass index; VO2max, ml/kg/minute; Fasting glucose and 2-h glucose tolerance is mmol/L; HbA1c is percentage glycosylated hemoglobin. *P < 0.001 when compared with either NGT or IGT; P < 0.01 when compared with the NGT group; P = 0.07 when compared with the NGT group. OGTT, oral glucose tolerance test.
