Description

Dataset of the manuscript tilted "Evaluation of leg symmetry in muscle oxygen saturation during submaximal to maximal cycling exercise". In this work we determined whether oxygenation profiles in the three active muscles of both legs were symmetrical during cycling at different intensities. Twenty-six trained cyclists and triathletes completed a graded exercise test (GXT) and an 8-minute Functional Threshold Power estimation test (8MTT) on a cycle ergometer over two non-consecutive days. SmO2 was bilaterally assessed using NIRS technology in the vastus lateralis, gastrocnemius medialis, and tibialis anterior.
