Change in outcome variables after eight weeks for participants in the Low and High groups.
| Low (n = 6) | High (n = 3) | 95% CI† | Hedges’ g | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ΔBody Mass (kg) | −1.0 ± 2.1 | −0.1 ± 0.4 | (−3.02, 0.27) | 0.46 |
| ΔBody Fat (%) | 0.5 ± 3.4 | −0.1 ± 0.8 | (−1.62, 3.62) | 0.18 |
| ΔVO2max (L/min) | 0.20 ± 0.20 | 0.30 ± 0.17 | (−0.33, 0.08) | 0.46 |
| ΔRelative VO2max (ml/min/kg) | 3.6 ± 2.4 | 4.5 ± 1.7 | (−3.82, 1.10) | 0.35 |
| ΔVO2θ (L/min) | 0.17 ± 0.14 | 0.37 ± 0.15 | (−0.38, −0.03)* | 1.26 |
| Δ(VO2θ/VO2max) (%) | 0.3 ± 3.0 | 3.6 ± 3.3 | (−7.27, 0.22) | 0.95 |
| ΔVEθ (L/min) | 0.20 ± 0.22 | 0.27 ± 0.06 | (−0.25, 0.08) | 0.32 |
Values are mean ± SD. No significant differences were observed between groups at baseline. VO2max = maximum oxygen uptake; relative VO2max = maximum oxygen uptake normalized by body weight; VO2θ = oxygen uptake at metabolic threshold; VO2θ/VO2max = metabolic threshold as a percent of maximum oxygen uptake; VEθ = oxygen uptake at ventilatory threshold;
†
difference of means calculated from 10,000 bootstrap replicates;
*
does not include zero, suggesting a statistically significant difference.
