Data are expressed as mean ± SD. HIIT: High-Intensity Interval Training. ns: non-significant

^‡ Rats’ weight (g) in the control group was significantly increased after 8 weeks (p < 0.002)

^# HIIT group’s weight was increased after 8 weeks (p < 0.001)

^† Blood glucose (mg/dl) in the control group was significantly higher in the 8th week than in the first week (p < 0.006)

Blood glucose of HIIT groups after 8 weeks wasn’t changed significantly (p < 0.12)
