Significantly different from before Ramadan: * (P < 0.05). Note: FAST = subjects training in a fasted state; FED = subjects training in a fed state; ^a = inter-assay coefficient of variance. TG = triglycerides; TC = total cholesterol; HDL-C = high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C = low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Before Ramadan (Bef-R) = 2 days before beginning the fast; end of Ramadan (End-R) = 29 days after beginning the fast.
