  1. The p-value for ‘Training’ shows the differences after training as a whole group, ‘Training*intensity’ demonstrates an interaction between the training intensities. All data are presented as model based means [95% confidence interval, CI]. Logarithmic transformation has been done to the variables with ^. The values are LS means translated into original unit. BMI (Body mass index), VO2peak (aerobic capacity).
