Preliminary Measurements
On the first visit to the laboratory, the participants underwent anthropometric testing and aerobic capacity assessment. The peak value obtained from the aerobic exercise capacity test was used to determine the subsequent aerobic exercise bouts. The remaining 3 test days were randomized and separated by a minimum of 72 hours. For all testing sessions, the participants were asked to come to the laboratory having abstained from caffeine or alcohol for the previous 12 hours. In addition, the participants were asked to refrain from strenuous physical activity for at least 48 hours before data collection.
