Note:
Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation. HR, heart rate; RER, respiratory exchange ratio; VE, ventilation; VO2, oxygen consumption in absolute terms; VO2/BM, oxygen consumption relative to body mass (kg); VO2/BSA, oxygen consumption relative to body surface area (m2); VO2 /FFM, oxygen consumption relative to fat free mass (kg).
