Table 2.

Participants produced near maximal levels of power during maximal cycling in absence of fatigue over the extension and flexion phases of the pedal cycle.

	Left side		Right side
	No fatigue	Fatigued quadriceps	No fatigue	Fatigued quadriceps	P values
Extension power (W)	635 ± 164	525 ± 128	607 ± 156	516 ± 122	Side: 0.70 Cond: < 0.01 Int: 0.82
Flexion power (W)	114 ± 41	82 ± 26	120 ± 52	86 ± 33	Side: 0.40 Cond: < 0.01 Int: 0.56
Extension power (%)	95 ± 5	84 ± 7	94 ± 4	84 ± 7	Side: 0.45 Cond: < 0.001 Int: 0.22
Flexion Power (%)	88 ± 9	68 ± 21	87 ± 6	69 ± 16	Side: 0.87 Cond: < 0.01 Int: 0.63

Following the fatiguing task, we observed reductions extension power and flexion power across both legs. Significant effects values were highlighted in bold.
