ABSTRACT
Two sample t-test was used to determine baseline differences between the normal weight and overweight children. A two-way repeated measure ANOVA (with Bonferroni post hoc test) was used to compare the effect of different types of training on heart rate, energy intake [total and normalized to body weight (energy/kg)] and the relative consumption of protein, fat, and carbohydrate in the normal weight and overweight children. Exercise type served as the within group, and weight as the between group factor. Statistical significance was taken at p<0.05. Chi-square test was used to determine the differences in the number of participants at each group that increased their caloric intake per kg body weight by more than 5%. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD).
