Mean ± SE.
Tested by paired t-test (within-group comparison), and by independent t-test (intergroup comparison for initial value).
There were no significant differences in ‘within-group comparison’ nor ‘intergroup-comparison’.
TEE: total energy expenditure, TCI: total calorie intake, CHO: carbohydrate.
