  1. aDetermined using the physical activity rating scale: infrequent (0–1), moderate (2–3) and vigorous (4–7) physical activity45.
  2. bEstimated using the Jackson et al. non-exercise equations45.
  3. cAll measures collected continuously (i.e. heart rate) and periodically (i.e. blood lactate; RPE) were averaged over the 30-minute exercise bout.
  4. dMaximum heart rate estimated by the equation: 191.5 − (0.007 × age2)46.
