Table 2. Within-group differences of VO2max, MAS, and isokinetic strength between pre- and post-period of training.

VO2max: maximal oxygen consumption; MAS: maximal aerobic speed; HRmax: maximal heart rate; EPT: Extension Peak Torque at 60°/s; FPT: flexion peak torque at 60°/s; (L): left; (R): right; DE: deficit at extension; DF: deficit at flexion; Rag/An: ratio agonist/antagonist.
