| Appetite subjective sensation: To investigate if subjective appetite perception is reduced post - circuit resistance training session with regard to acute appetite responses to exercise using a visual analog scale (VAS). VAS is composed of seven questions placed above a 100 mm line anchored by extreme responses that identify a variety of subjective perceptions associated with appetite, including hunger, fullness, desire to eat salty and sweet foods. The VAS was applied at 3 distinct times, namely: (I) after subjects' arrival at the laboratory (pre-intervention); (II) 40 min post-intervention (laboratory phase); (III) 12 h post-intervention at predetermined 3 h intervals (outpatient phase). It is expected to observe that the association between exercise vs. appetite shows that after the circuit resistance training session there is no increase in hunger compared to the control session without exercise.;Food intake: It is expected that the association between exercise vs. food intake will show that after the resistance circuit training session there is no increase in relative food intake compared to the control session without exercise. The dietary profile was assessed by means of a 24 h Food Recall (R24h). The R24h was applied during three non-consecutive days, considering two typical days of the week and one atypical day on the weekend. In the post-exercise period (control), food intake was assessed by 12 h Food Recall (R12h) at pre-established intervals every 3h. In both R24h and R12h, meal times and the amount consumed reported in home measures were obtained. The nutritional composition in grams/day for macronutrients and micronutrients in each meal was calculated using nutritional analysis software (NutriDieta DFMédica® Brasil). Relative energy intake was estimated by subtracting the energy intake from the total energy cost expended for either control or circuit resistance training.;Total energy cost: To estimate the total energy cost of each experiment, the ener | — |

| Reproducibility: it is expected to observe that the measurements of each dependent variable obtained in each condition (circuit resistance training/control session) and moment (baseline, laboratory phase and ambulatory phase during 12h) are reproducible, assuming a moderate (0.40 to 0.75) to high (> 0.75) degree of reliability through the analysis of the intraclass correlation coefficient. | — |
