SIT 8 × 20 s
Consisted of ~8 × 20‐s intervals at ~150% of MAS separated by 10 s of passive rest, aiming to exhaust the subject during the eighth or ninth interval. If a ninth interval was completed, the velocity was increased in the following training session. Every subject had one‐to‐one follow‐up and received verbal encouragement during all intervals, ensuring that absolute exhaustion was attained. Including the warm‐up and a 10‐min cool‐down at an intensity corresponding to 70% of HR
