Table 2. Comparison, association and agreement between variables obtained during the track field and treadmill tests (N = 20).

Note: Vpeak_TF, Peak running velocity on the track field; Vpeak_T, Peak running velocity on the laboratory treadmill test; CI, confidence interval; ICC, intraclass correlation coefficient; LoA limits of agreement (LoA = bias = 1.96 SD).
*P < 0.05 in relation to the track field test.
