* Indicates significant difference between the change in the variable between no weight loss (<3%) and weight loss and weight loss (≥3%) conditions within the exercise group;
† Indicates that the p-value between the between the no weight loss and weight loss condition is between 0.05 to 0.09) within the exercise group.
NO WL: no weight loss, MWL: at least modest weight loss, Non-HDL cholesterol: Non high density lipoprotein cholesterol, Small LDL cholesterol: Small low density lipoprotein particles,
LDL particles: Total low density lipoprotein particles
