TABLE 1.
Mean values and standard deviation for workload, VO2, %VO2, HR, %HR, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and blood lactate (BLa) during the protocol.
| PRE | WU | THR | MAX | POST | |

| VO2 [ml/min/kg] | 49 (9) | 63 (10) | |||
| %VO2 [of VO2max] | 82 (12) | 100 (0) | |||
| HR [bpm] | 59 (11) | 125 (12) | 164 (10) | 182 (9) | 93 (18) |
| %HR [of HRmax] | 32 (6) | 69 (5) | 90 (4) | 100 (0) | 51 (8) |
| SBP [mmHg] | 136 (9) | 201 (21) | 219 (21) | 231 (18) | 134 (18) |
| DBP [mmHg] | 88 (7) | 88 (10) | 89 (9) | 91 (10) | 88 (9) |
| BLa [mmol/L] | 1.6 (0.4) | 3.3 (0.5) | 11.0 (2.5) |
PRE = values at rest before the cycling, WU = values during warm-up, THR = values at the threshold, MAX = values at maximal (except for Bla which was measured directly after maximal intensity), POST = values measured 10 min after the test
