On arrival at the laboratory (time 0) participants rested for 30 min (rest). In a randomised order participant's RMR was consecutively measured for 30 min on the GEM (G), the Deltatrac (D) and the ECAL (E). Following this, participants had 15 min to consume a 1553 kJ standardised meal (meal). Diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT) was measured in a randomised start order on the GEM (G) and the Deltatrac (D) alternating the hoods in 15 min intervals for the remaining 4 h until the end of the study (415 min).
