Incremental cycling (start at 30 W with an increase of 10 W per minute) until exhaustion. Clozapine: participants treated were divided into groups based on their antipsychotic medication status: those treated mainly with clozapine (i.e., in an amount greater than 50% of total CPZE) comprised the clozapine group, those treated mainly with other antipsychotics (i.e., in an amount greater than 50% of total CPZE) comprised the non-clozapine group. Primary:
Resting heart rate.
Peak heart rate.
Heart rate reserve.
Secondary:
VO2 peak.
Oxygen pulse.
Ventilation.
Respiratory exchange ratio.
RPE.
Resting heart rate: ↑.
Peak heart rate: ↑.
