LEP and Insulin resistance: The VO2max was negatively correlated with progressive strength to the BMIz (−0.656, p ≤ 0.001), hs-CRP (r = −0.341, p ≤ 0.002), glucose (r = −0.404, p ≤ 0.001) and insulin levels (r = −0.348, p ≤ 0.001), the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (r = −0.345, p ≤ 0.002), as well as to the leptin (r = −0.639, p ≤ 0.001) and fibrinogen concentrations (r = −0.520, p ≤ 0.001).
