Note: Floorball group (FG; n = 13) and control group (CG; n = 14) at baseline and after 5 years of follow‐up. Some measures included fewer subjects; HbA1c (CG; n = 11), fasting insulin (FG; n = 12, CG; n = 9), HOMA‐IR (FG; n = 11, CG; n = 9), arm lean body mass (CG; n = 11), MVC (CG:; n = 12), 6 min walk test (CG; n = 12), 30 s sit‐to‐stand repetitions (CG; n = 12), 5 sit‐to‐stand repetitions (CG; n = 12), Timed Up and Go (CG; n = 12), hand‐grip strength (CG; n = 12), arm curls (CG; n = 12). Data are presented as mean ± SD.
P < 0.05, between groups.
p < 0.05, compared with baseline within group.
