Baseline characteristics.
| SIT (n = 10) | ET (n = 10) | CG (n = 10) | p-value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Age [years] | 27.9 ± 1.8 | 26.7 ± 2.2 | 27.5 ± 1.7 | 0.199 |

| Height [cm] | 181.4 ± 4.3 | 180.6 ± 6.6 | 181.0 ± 6.7 | 0.907 |
| Body mass index [kg∙m-2] | 22.32 ± 1.4 | 23.89 ± 1.4 | 23.57 ± 1.4 | 0.610 |
| ⩒Lamax [mmol∙L-1∙s-1] | 0.76 ± 0.18 | 0.75 ± 0.18 | 0.75 ± 0.18 | 0.990 |
| ⩒O2max [ml∙kg-1∙min-1] | 62.56 ± 8.75 | 61.03 ± 4.83 | 60.76 ± 9.04 | 0.856 |
| PMLSS [W] | 259.7 ± 67.6 | 269.1 ± 52.0 | 260.8 ± 65.9 | 0.934 |
Note: Values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Baseline characteristics of the three groups were compared with a one-way ANOVA (p-value). Abbreviations: CG denotes control group, ET endurance training, PMLSS power in calculated maximal lactate steady state, SD standard deviation, SIT sprint interval training, ⩒Lamax maximal lactate production rate, ⩒O2max maximum oxygen consumption at maximum load.
