Table 2. Exercise intensity during water-polo plays performed in front of defense court for defenders (Def) and offenders (Off) playing press (P), static-zone (SZ) and zone-press (ZP).The intensity is expressed by heart rate (HR), the percentage time spent below 85% of HR peak and lactate values. Data are means (±SD).
