* Significant differences between intervention periods in overall test (p ≤ 0.05; MANOVA). Duncan’s post hoc test was used to describe where the differences between intervention groups appeared. Means that are significantly different from others are marked as unlike letters. p-Value ≤0.1 was seen as a trend. To demonstrate where differences occurred in analyses, means were marked as unlike letters, too
