Data are median and interquartile range.

P values refer to comparisons between groups by repeated measures ANOVA. Statistically significant figures are in bold type. When a significant time-by-group interaction was found, differences within each group between the exercise and the corresponding non-exercise values were assessed by Student's t test, and statistically significant figures were indicated by symbols. Wilcoxon non parametric test was used to compare LBGI and HBGI values between the exercise and non-exercise days (Wilcoxon matched-pair test) and between groups(Wilcoxon rank-sum test), and statistically significant figures were indicated by symbols.

a

p<0.05 vs non-exercise;

b

p<0.01 vs non-exercise.
