Note: FAST = subjects training in a fasted state; FED = subjects training in a fed state; ^a = inter-assay coefficient of variance. CK = Creatine kinase, LDH = lactatedehydrogenase, ALT = alanine aminotransferase, AST = aspartate aminotransferase, AP = alkaline phosphatase, γ-GT = γ-glutamyl transferase. Before Ramadan (Bef-R) = 2 days before beginning the fast; end of Ramadan (End-R) = 29 days after beginning the fast.
