Statistically significant variables were adjusted for age, body mass, and body fat; ß, unstandardized coefficient; 95%CI, confidence interval; VDBP, vitamin D binding protein; VO2max, maximal oxygen uptake; L, left; R, right; CMJ, countermovement vertical jump; AVG, average. Bold values are statistically significant.
