Data were examined by repeated measures ANOVA for the effects of diet (RS), exercise (EX), and time.

EX/SED rats were excluded from this analysis.

All paramaters except NEFAs, were significantly affected by the time of relapse (p < 0.05).

A = RS, p < 0.05; B = EX, p < 0.05; C = time, p < 0.05

D = RS × EX, p < 0.05; E = EX × Time, p < 0.05

* = planned comparison, RS-fed significantly different from corresponding C-fed group, p < 0.05.
