  1. Data expressed as Control (Con), Stanzolol (Stanz), Cannabis (Cann), and Combined treatments (Comb), with each group further exposed to Sedentary and Training conditions. Data are expressed as mean ± SD; Significance was tested at p < 0.05 using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test for comparison (n = 5/group).
