SD: standard deviation, IC: indoor cycling, XCS: cross-country skiing, AS: alpine skiing, HR: heart rate, bpm: beats per minute, mmol/L: millimol per liter, VO
2: oxygen uptake, % values: related to maximal values at all-out ergometry; peak: highest value measured in the high intensity interval session.
