Changes in atherogenic dyslipidemia indexes before and after a two-months de-training period in elite TKD collegiate athletes. The atherogenic dyslipidemia indexes, including a the ratio of total cholesterol-to-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (CHOL/LDL ratio) and b the ratio of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL/HDL ratio) were measured during regular competition training/preparation season (TKD Tx; gray bar) and after two-months de-training (De-training [2 M]). All values are expressed as Mean ± S.E.M. ** denotes the approached significant difference between TKD Tx and De-training [2 M] (p < 0.01); *** denotes the approached significant difference between TKD Tx and De-training [2 M] (p < 0.001)
