Values are represented as means ± SD (upper/lower).

1,2,3The 95% confidential interval did not contain the parameter value specified in the null hypothesis between the Sed, Hyp, or Tr groups, respectively.

4,5,6Effects of exercise (E), hyperbaric exposure (H), and their interaction (I) were significantly different at P < 0.05, P < 0.01, and P < 0.001, respectively, using a two‐way ANOVA.

7,8,9Significantly different from the Sed, Hyp, and Tr groups, respectively, at P < 0.05 using the Tukey‐Kramer multiple comparisons test.
