Table 4.

Indices of changes in the mean between two test occasions (test 2 − test 1) for peak data, the total tenderness score, and VO₂ max l · min⁻¹, N = 25

Variables/indices	Mean diff test 2 − test 1	SD*	SE*	95% CI*
Shoulder MVC (N × 10−1)	0.16	0.74	0.15	−0.14–0.47
Shoulder RFD (N × 10−1 × s−1)	0.44	11.11	2.22	−4.14–5.02
Neck extension MVC (N × 10−1)	−0.09	2.29	0.46	−1.04–0.86
Neck flexion MVC (N × 10−1)	−0.16	1.33	0.27	−0.71–0.39
Neck extension FS (N × 10−1)	−0.00	0.02	0.00	−0.01–0.01
Neck flexion FS (N × 10−1)	−0.01	0.02	0.00	−0.02–0.00
TTS (0–42)	−1.48	3.80	0.76	−3.05–0.09
VO2 max (l · min−1)	0.01	0.45	0.09	−0.18–0.19

Note:

^*refers to the mean difference between test 2 and test 1.

Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; FS, force steadiness; MVC: maximal voluntary contraction; RFD, rate of force development; TTS, total tenderness score; VO₂ max, predicted maximal oxygen uptake; SE, standard error of the mean; SD, standard deviation; diff, difference.
