Observed values are expressed as means ± standard deviation. HIIT: high-intensity interval training, MICT: moderate-intensity continuous training, delta () for the change from before to after intervention, BMI: body mass index, TLM: total lean mass, TFM: total fat mass, TBF (%): percentage of total body fat, and O2peak: peak oxygen uptake. Partial value for effect size (ES).
