Whole-body and segmental FFM before and after 12-week resistance training with and without HMB supplementation. a Whole-body measurements for total body mass and FFM. b Arm FFM. c Leg FFM. Values are medians (crossbars), interquartile ranges (boxes) and minima and maxima (whiskers). Individual changes are shown by circles and lines. P-values indicate within-subject differences for each group using Bonferroni-corrected paired t tests. Segmental data include left and side; n = 28 (WP + HMB: n = 16, WP + PLA: n = 12) for arm and leg FFM)
