Food intake and glucose metabolism of male offspring submitted to HFD. a Calorie intake (Kcal) over 16 weeks was reduced in trained HFD group. b Male offspring of exercising mothers revealed less body weight throughout the experiment. c Relative white adipose tissue (WAT, inguinal) normalized to tibia length (cm) was decreased in trained HFD group (black bar). d No differences between groups were observed in Glucose tolerance test (GTT). However, the decline in glucose uptake after insulin stimulation (ITT) was lower in trained HFD group (e). f Constant rate of glucose disappearance (Kitt) calculated from ITT displayed increased levels in the offspring of exercising mothers. Data are presented as mean ± SDM *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01 (n = 6 per group)
