Mean change in body composition for all participants was as follows: -0.30 kg fat-free mass (95%CI -1.41, 0.81 kg), -0.14 percent fat-free mass (95%CI -1.27, 0.99%), 0.18 kg fat mass (95%CI -0.98, 1.34 kg), and 0.14 percent body fat (95%CI -0.99, 1.27%). Participants in HIIT experienced an increase in fat-free mass and percent fat free mass, along with a reduction in fat mass and body fat percentage. Participants in MICE experienced reductions in fat-free mass, percent fat-free mass, increases in fat mass and body fat percentage.
