Height and mass were recorded using a scale (ES200L; Ohaus Corporation Pinebrook, NJ, USA) and stadiometer (752KL, Seca; Ontario, CA) on day one. They then performed a dynamic warm-up consisting of walking knee hugs, reverse lunges, single leg hamstring bows, and side lunges twice for 10 meters. Participants were then familiarized with the squat jump protocol by standing inside a four-square foot box with their feet slightly wider than hip width. They extended their arms over head with a slight bend in the elbows followed by squatting down and swinging their arms to perform a counter movement maximal effort jump. Participants performed three jumps with maximal effort for familiarization. They were instructed and encouraged to perform these maximal effort counter movements jumps 10 times. Participants were also familiarized with a finger prick blood draw. They returned for days two and three after an eight-hour fast. Additionally, they were asked to refrain from resistance training or alcohol consumption for 48 and 24 hours, respectively.
Es200l

Fasting-state body mass was measured weekly to the nearest ±0.01 kg using a digital platform scale (model ES200L, Ohaus Corporation, Pine Brook, NJ). Standing height without shoes was measured to the nearest ±0.1 cm with a wall-mounted stadiometer during the pre-study week. Whole body lean (non-bone soft tissue) and fat tissue masses were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA, GE Lunar Prodigy with version 11.1 enCORE iDXA software, Madison, WI) during baseline week 3 and intervention week 16. Right mid-thigh and mid-calf cross-sectional areas, muscle areas, subcutaneous fat areas, and intramuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) areas were measured using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI, 3T General Electric Signa HDx system), as described [23 (link)]. Abdominal MRIs at the L3-L4 vertebral disc were also taken due to high correlations with whole abdominal visceral adipose tissue (VAT) volume [24 (link)].

Participants' height was measured to the nearest 0.5 cm and body weight measured to the nearest 0.1 kg using a wall-mounted stadiometer and a digital scale (Ohaus ES200L, Pinewood, NJ, USA), respectively. These values were then used to calculate BMI. Waist circumference (WC) was measured to the nearest 0.5 cm, following the World Health Organization standard procedures [28 ]. Two measurements were recorded, and the average WC was used in the analyses.

Parents filled out a medical history form that included current or past signs and symptoms of disease and drug and/or supplement use. Pubertal development was estimated from parents’ responses to a modified version of the Pubertal Developmental Scale [17 (link)]. Body mass to the nearest 0.01 kg was obtained using a digital scale (ES200L; Ohaus, Pinewood, NJ, USA) with the subject wearing a t-shirt, shorts, and no shoes. Height was measured to the nearest 0.1 cm using a wall-mounted stadiometer (Seca, Ontario, CA, USA) at the end of inhalation. Body mass index (BMI) z-scores were derived from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website [18 ].

Fasting-state body mass (total mass-robe mass) was measured every week using a digital platform scale (model ES200L, Ohaus Corporation, Pine Brook, NJ, USA) and standing height without shoes was measured at baseline using a wall-mounted stadiometer. Body mass index was calculated as (kg/m2) from these measurements. Waist circumference was measured in the standing position at the narrowest position between the lateral lower rib and the iliac crest. Hip circumference was measured in the standing position at the largest circumference of the lower abdomen. Waist and hip measurements were performed in triplicate at baseline and post-intervention and the time-specific mean values were recorded. Whole body and regional lean tissue and fat masses were also measured at baseline and post-intervention using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA; GE Lunar Prodigy with version 11.1 enCORE iDXA software, Madison, WI, USA). Automatic daily calibrations of DXA imaging were conducted throughout the study and weekly quality-assurance tests were conducted utilizing a calibrated phantom spine.

Body mass to the nearest 0.01 kg was obtained using a digital scale (ES200L; Ohaus, Pinewood, NJ, USA) with the subject wearing a t-shirt, shorts, and no shoes. Height was measured to the nearest 0.1 cm using a wall-mounted stadiometer (Seca, Ontario, CA, USA) at the end of inhalation. Body mass index (BMI) was derived from dividing body mass in kg by height in meters squared.

Comprehensive Pulmonary Function Assessment

Before the pulmonary function testing, using an electronic scale (Ohaus Corporation, ES200L, Pinebrook, NJ) researchers obtained the participants weight as well as the participants standing height. Baseline pulmonary function testing included measures of forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1). Measurements were made with a computerized spirometry system (Ultima PFX, MedGraphics, St. Paul, MN) according to American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society (ATS/ERS) standards (31) (link). Lung volumes and capacities were determined using whole body plethysmography (32) (link). Lung diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) was determined by the single-breath, breath-hold method (33) using the Jones and Meade method for timing and alveolar sample collection (MedGraphics Ultima PFX, Breeze v.6.3.006). Predicted values for spirometry, lung volumes, and DLCO, as well as lower limits of normal (LLN), were calculated using equations from the Global Lung Initiative (34) (link).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
