Fasting plasma glucose (mmol.L-1)	4.9 ± 0.3	5.1 ± 0.3	5.2 ± 0.2	P = 0.423
Day 3 - Glucose AUC (A.U)	653 ± 185	659 ± 80	632 ± 50	P = 0.889

Values are mean ± sd. There were no significant differences between the three groups for any of the baseline characteristics. Data pertaining to VO_2peak, glucose AUC, HOMA-IR, and step counts have been reported previously and have been reanalysed for this study. NS – Normal sleep, SR – Sleep restriction, SR+EX – Sleep Restriction and Exercise, BMI – body mass index, AUC – area under the curve, HOMA-IR – Homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance index, MEQ – morningness-eveningness chronotype question. * denotes significantly different from NS group, ^# denotes significantly different from SR group, P < 0.05.
