Correction: Physiological responses and external validity of a new setting for taekwondo combat simulation

There is an error in the ninth sentence of the Abstract. The correct sentence is: A peak $\dot{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{O}}_2$ of 44.8 ± 5.0 ml.kg^-1.min^-1 (89 ± 5% $\dot{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{O}}_{2\mathrm{PEAK}}$), a peak heart rate of 190 ± 13 beats.min^-1 (98 ± 3% HR_PEAK) and peak [La^-] of 12.3 ± 2.9 mmol.L^–1 was elicited by the bouts.

There are errors in the last sentence of the third paragraph of the “Physiological measurements during the simulated combat” section of the Methods [1]. The correct sentence is: Then, HR intensity was classified into five zones: A (95%-100%HR_PEAK), B (90–94% HR_PEAK), C (85–89%HR_PEAK), D (84–80% HR_PEAK), E (<80%HR_PEAK).

In Table 2, the value in the Total Comp column and Number of exchanges line should be 31–41. There is an error in Table 2 caption for Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA outcome. The correct sentence is: ^† Denotes significant difference for condition factor (Competition match and Combat simulation). Please see the corrected Table 2 here.

Comp–Competition Match. Simul–Combat Simulation. ET:PT ratio—Exchange Time/Preparation Time ratio. Total–Average of the two rounds. Variables presented as mean ± standard deviation, and 95% confidence interval (inferior limit–superior limit).

Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA (condition x round) outcome:

^† Denotes significant difference for condition factor (Competition match and Combat simulation).

Paired T-test outcome:

*Denotes significant difference in condition (Competition match and Combat simulation).

Significant level of p < 0.05 adopted for all variables.
