3.3. Aim 1 Results
The median bout duration (minutes) and intensity (METs) were 60 (IQR: 30, 90) and 4.5 (IQR: 4.0, 7.0), respectively. The average time from the cessation of MVPA bouts until midnight and 6:30 am the following morning was 9.0 ± 3.9 and 15.5 ± 10.4 h, respectively. The median protein intake from MVPA bout cessation until midnight was 34.9 (IQR: 20.9, 52.7) grams or 5.6 (IQR: 31.1, 0.86) grams/kilogram of body weight. The median TIR, TAR, and TBR from MVPA bout cessation until the following morning were 40.6% (IQR: 21.6%, 59.7%), 56.4% (IQR: 35.4%, 75.7%), and 0.00% (0.00%, 3.2%), respectively.We observed no association between post-exercise protein intake and TAR, TIR, or TBR when examined in grams or grams per kilogram (
