Modified PEDro criteria: (1) eligibility criteria were specified; (2) participants were randomly allocated to groups; (3) allocation was concealed; (4) groups were similar at baseline; (5) blinding of assessors; (6) measures of at least one key outcome were obtained from more than 85% of participants allocated to groups; (7) intention to treat analysis: data for at least one key outcome were analyzed by “intention to treat”; (8) the results of between-group statistical comparisons are reported for the primary outcome; (9) the study provides the point measures and measures of variability for at least one key outcome; (10) exercise training was supervised; (11) exercise adherence was reported; (12) habitual physical activity was measured; (13) energy expenditure of exercise training was estimated/calculated and reported.
