  1. Abbreviations are as follows: body mass index (BMI, kgm−2), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL, mM), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c, %), aerobic capacity (VO2 peak, mlkg−1min−1). Values are means ± SEM. *Indicates there is a significant difference (p < 0.05) between low and high HOMA-IR groups.
