KJ = kilojoules; KCALS = kilocalories; CHO = carbohydrate.
Note: sample size is different at each time point, because not all subjects completed three-day dietary records for each time point
* p < 0.05 compared with exercise group at that time point
† p < 0.05 compared with mid-training protein consumption
