OBJ, objective function value; LBM, lean body mass; IIV, inter-individual variability; IOV, inter-occasion variability; CV%, standard error of estimate expressed as coefficient of variation (%); The shared eta scale factor was estimated as described in the text. IIV, IOV and residual errors are expressed as variances.
