Comparison of Changes Across in Exercise Test and Cardiometabolic Parameters From Baseline to 10‐Year Follow‐Up Across Categories of CRF Change in Response to Short‐Term Exercise Training

Median Change	Low Response (n=24)	Moderate Response (n=28)	High Response (n=28)	P Value
VO_{2peak relative}, mL/kg/min	−4.25 (5.29)^a	−2.20 (2.45)^a	−0.35 (7.8)	0.02
Oxygen pulse	−0.86 (1.6)^a	−0.23 (1.8)	0.58 (2.0)	0.03
Maximal exercise HR	−14 (13)^a	−14 (12.5)^a	−11.5 (17.5)^a	0.57
BMI	0.03 (2.00)	0.80 (0.66)	−0.25 (2.89)	0.32
SBP	−4.4 (22.5)	−3.2 (9.8)	−1.6 (14.8)	0.88
DBP	−4.0 (9.1)^a	−2.0 (8.6)	−3.1 (6.9)^a	0.64
WC	0.30 (7.9)	3.2 (8.85)	−0.97 (9.1)	0.16
HOMA‐IR	−0.36 (1.01)^a	−0.09 (1.56)	0.14 (1.25)	0.13

Data presented as median (interquartile range, Q3–Q1) of the change in parameters across all participants. BMI indicates body mass index; CRF, cardiorespiratory fitness; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; HOMA‐IR, homeostatic model assessment–insulin resistance; HR, heart rate; SBP, systolic blood pressure; VO₂, peak exercise oxygen uptake; WC, waist circumference.

Significant within‐group change from baseline to 10‐year follow‐up using the Wilcoxon rank sum test.
