ET: Continuous endurance training; HIIT: High-intensity interval training; CO: Control; MPO: Maximal power output; HRMAX: Maximal heart rate; ∆: Change pre to post-intervention.

a Baseline values and changes were analysed by one-way ANOVA.

b Interactions group*time were analysed by two-way ANOVA (Mixed Linear Model);

c Significant interaction group*time.

* Difference from pre (P < 0.01).

Difference from CO group (P < 0.01).
