Abbreviations: abs, absolute; ATT, adipose tissue thickness; CE, cycling economy; DE, delta efficiency; EC, exercise economy; ExCO₂, excess CO₂ method; GE, gross efficiency; Isch Calib, ischemic calibration; k, rate constant for the recovering rates of muscle oxygen consumption (mVO₂); PPO, the power output at the point of exhaustion; rel, relative; T_c, time constant for the recovery of mVO₂; TT₂₅, 25‐km time trial; TTC, time‐to‐completion; VEQ, ventilatory equivalents method; VO_2max, maximal rate of whole‐body oxygen consumption; VO_2peak, peak rate of whole‐body oxygen consumption; V‐Slope, modified V‐Slope method; VT^avg, averaged ventilatory threshold (VT) values, including VEQ, ExCO₂, and V‐Slope; W, watt; W_max, averaged power output corresponding to VO_2max; W_peak, averaged power output corresponding to VO_2peak.
