Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient values between VO2maxand Pmax and selected indices of muscle oxygenation recorded during the Wingate and graded exercise tests in the group of female and male speed skaters (n = 27).

The numbers in the table presenting r values and coefficient interval for r in the brackets. ∆ SmO2 (%)—SmO2 difference between baseline and minimum values. SmO2 HTR—half time for SmO2 to reach the maximal values.
