Data are mean ± SE. All variables were determined on four separate occasions. Measurements were performed over two pairs of consecutive mornings; each pair was separated by 7 days. Immediately following either the first or third data collection (randomly assigned) research participants completed a single bout of SIT. B1, B2, and B3 refer to baseline values determined from measurements not preceded by SIT. RMR, resting metabolic rate (1 kcal = 4.1868 kJ); RER, respiratory exchange ratio; NEFA, nonesterified fatty acids; T3, triiodothyronine. All comparisons are P > 0.05.
