Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Postprandial triglyceride levels in blood taken at 0.75, 2, 4 and 6 h after a high-fat meal on days 1 and 8<br> 2. Postprandial insulin levels in blood taken at 0.75, 2, 4 and 6 h after a high-fat meal on days 1 and 8<br> 3. Postprandial glucose levels in blood taken at 0.75, 2, 4 and 6 h after a high-fat meal on days 1 and 8<br> 4. Postprandial non-esterified fatty acid levels in blood taken at 0.75, 2, 4 and 6 h after a high-fat meal on days 1 and 8<br> 5. Postprandial high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels in blood taken at 0.75, 2, 4 and 6 h after a high-fat meal on days 1 and 8<br> 6. Postprandial low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels in blood taken at 0.75, 2, 4 and 6 h after a high-fat meal on days 1 and 8<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Inflammatory marker (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein [hs-CRP], IL-6, monocytes, macrophages, leukocytes) levels in blood taken at 0.75, 2, 4 and 6 h after a high-fat meal on days 1 and 8<br> 2. Activity profiles recorded during each football training session using a wGT3X-BT actigraph placed on the hip and calculated using the integrated tri-axial accelerometer Freedson vector magnitude equation<br> 3. Subjective rating of perceived exertion assessed within 10 min of completing the training by participants verbally provided their exertion level of the training intervention on the Borg CR10 scale<br>
