Indirect (a*b) .066 .150 −.221 .364
Cold Tolerance (Log[s+1]) .175 .071 .036 .315
Indirect (a*b) −.158 .039 −.241 −.088
Ischemia Tolerance (Log[s+1]) .077 .081 −.081 .236

Note. Cˈ=direct effect. a*b =indirect effect. SE = Standard Error. s=seconds. CI = confidence Interval for indirect effects were bootstrapped at 10000 samples. Bolded effects are significantly different from 0. Sex and BMI were included as covariates.
