FES cycling performance for first and best session, and progress to OffMotor and voluntary cycling.

	First FES Session			Since FES Cycling Start
	Power (W)	OffMotor (Min)		OffMotor >90% (Weeks)	Voluntary Cycling (Weeks)
P1	0	0		7.1	No
P2	0	0		5.0	11.1
P3	0	0		1.6	No
		Best FES Session
	Weeks	Duration	OffMotor	Velocity	Avg.Power	Max.Power	Avg.Res
		(Min)	(Min)	(RPM)	(W)	(W)	(Nm)
P1	13.0	45	40:00	40–55	13.9	19.4	3.5
P2	11.1	35	33:42	30	8.8	13.0	2.8
P3	6.9	35	34:03	30	19.0	24.2	6.1

Note: FES, functional electrical stimulation; Avg, average; Max, maximum; Res, resistance; W, Watts; Min, minutes; RPM, revolutions per minute; Nm, newton meter; P, participant.

Best session is the session with the highest average power of all sessions per participant. OffMotor is the time in minutes per session biked without motor support, i.e. with FES-produced or voluntary muscle contraction. Underlined values indicate a session including interval training with fast passive cycling, therefore OffMotor time is only fraction of total time, and velocity gives low and high RPM used.
