Figure 1 Effects of Cr supplementation in conjunction with aerobic training on blood triglycerides, VLDL-cholesterol, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol at baseline (Pre) and after 4 (Post 4), 8 (Post 8), and 12 (Post 12) weeks of intervention. * main time effect: Post 4 versus Post 8 (p = 0.01); * * main time effect: Pre versus Post 8 and Post 12 (p = 0.02 and p = 0.01, respectively). No significant interaction effects were observed between the CR (n = 12) and PL (n = 10) groups.
