  1. The results are presented as the means ± SEM
  2. P values were estimated using two-tailed paired Student’s t tests; bold values represent statistically significant differences
  3. *P < 0.05 vs. values before training
  4. ALT: alanine transaminase; AST: aspartate transaminase; CK-MM: creatine kinase-MM; GGT, gamma-glutamyl transferase; HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin; hs-CRP: high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; and LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol
