Variables presented as mean ± standard error. CT1: concurrent training 5 times per week; CT2: concurrent training 3 times per week. BMI: body mass index; FFM: free fat mass; BF%: body fat percentage, WC: waist circumference; AC: abdominal circumference; HC: hip circumference; BMR: basal metabolic rate. < 0.05 (significantly different). Paired -test was utilized to compare before and after training in the same group.
