  2. Figure 2

    Perceptions of hunger (A) and concentrations of plasma delta acylated ghrelin (B), insulin (C) and glucose (D) in the control (), moderate-intensity exercise () and vigorous-intensity exercise () conditions. Values are mean (SEM), n = 9 for hunger, insulin and glucose and n = 8 for acylated ghrelin. Black rectangle indicates moderate-intensity exercise, grey rectangle indicates vigorous-intensity exercise and open rectangle indicates consumption of the standardised meal.

    Perceptions of hunger (A), and concentrations of plasma delta acylated ghrelin (B), insulin (C) and glucose (D) in the control (), 45-min exercise () and 90-min exercise () conditions. Values are mean (SEM), n = 9 for hunger, acylated ghrelin, insulin and glucose. Black rectangle indicates 90-min exercise, grey rectangle indicates 45-min exercise and open rectangles indicates consumption of the standardised meals.
