Means ± SD absolute increments per minute of scV˙O₂, scHR, scSV, and scT° at different intensities relative to V˙O_2max. Main effects for the relative exercise intensity are shown in the bottom line of the tables. Data in boldface are significant (P < 0.05).

^aSignificant difference from 40%.

^bSignificant difference from 50%.

^cSignificant difference from 60%.

^dSignificant difference from 70%.
