Results are shown as means ± S.E.M.
Statistical significance: ^* relative to the SO CTRL group at the start and end of the training and feeding period, and ^# is a significant difference between the running (R) and nonrunning groups.
SO: sham-operated, OVX: ovariectomized, CTRL: standard chow, CR: calorie restriction, HT: high-triglyceride, and R: running.
