  1. Values are mean ± SD, n = 8 for sedentary control (C), n = 9 for exercise at 25 °C (WE) and n = 9 for exercise at 4 °C (CE) groups
  2. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA for more than one comparison
  3. Initial and final measurements of body weight were analyzed by paired-sample t test
  4. * p < 0.05 difference between initial and final body weight
