2. Figure 1
Average values for training intensity sustained during the program sessions (top left, A), cardiac frequency (fc) [bottom left, B], dyspnea (top right, C), and leg discomfort (bottom right, D) for the IE (open circles) and CLE (closed circles) training groups. All parameters are expressed as fractions of the peak values achieved at Wpeak during the baseline incremental test. Data are shown as mean ± SEM.

3. Figure 2
Fiber-type distribution (percentage) of the vastus lateralis muscle before (open squares) and after (gray squares) training for the IE group (top, A) and the CLE group (bottom, B). *p < 0.05, comparisons between before (open squares) and after training (gray squares). Data are presented as mean ± SEM.
