Body weight changes from T0 to T2
A, the 48 male Wistar rats that were not killed at T1 (HF/HS) were assigned to one of the following groups for another 8 weeks (T1 to T2): HF/HS diet alone (n = 12, HF/HS group), HF/HS diet and endurance training (n = 12, HF/HS+E), normal diet alone (n = 12, ND), normal diet and endurance training (n = 12, ND+E). B, body weight changes between T0–T1 (HF/HS diet alone) and T1–T2 (diet ± training); C, weight variation (gain/loss); and D, body fat percentage between T1 and T2 (end of the interventions). Values are the mean ± SEM. HF/HS, high fat/high sucrose diet; HF/HS+E, high fat/high sucrose and exercise training; ND, normal diet; NE+E, normal diet and exercise training (n = 12 rats per group). NS, not significant.
