Values are given as the mean ± SE. Inline graphicO2peak, peak aerobic capacity for walking; HRrest 1, heart rate at rest before starting the exercise for the Inline graphicO2peak measurement; HRpeak, peak heart rate at Inline graphicO2peak; Inline graphicO2AT, anaerobic threshold for cycling; HRrest 2, heart rate at rest before starting the exercise for the Inline graphicO2AT measurement; and HRAT, heart rate at Inline graphicO2AT. Significant differences compared to the value before training, *P<0.05 and **P<0.01.
