TDEE (kcals/day) HPC 2120.7 (145.9) 2167.2 (145.0)
HC 2130.7 (127.5) 2148.3 (130.5)
TDEE represents total daily energy expenditure. There were no significant differences between Day 0 and 57 for either group, nor were there any significant differences between groups at Day 0 and 57 for total calories and the gram amount of protein, carbohydrates, and fat (p > 0.05). + Supplement indicates the mean daily values for each nutritional variable due to also consuming the supplement. HPC = high protein + carbohydrate; HC = high carbohydrate
