Table 1 Characteristics of study participants
Fig. 1 Study protocol. Note: ICE – increasing cycling exercise test; OB - handmade oat bar; 1–9 –days of study. (1 T) - test Nr. 1 executed at day 1 of the study; (2 T) - test Nr. 2 executed at day 4 of the study; (3 T) - test Nr. 3 executed at day 9 of the study
Fig. 2 Peak power of increasing cycling exercise (ICE) following single-dose (2 T) and long-term (3 T) doses of supplements in the experimental and placebo groups. * p < 0.05 - statistically significant difference compared to the 1 T
Fig. 3 Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) following single-dose (2 T) and long-term (3 T) doses of supplements in the experimental and placebo groups. * p < 0.05 - statistically significant difference compared to the 1 T
Fig. 4 First ventilatory threshold (VT1) and second ventilatory threshold (VT2) following single-dose (2 T) and long-term (3 T) doses of supplements in the experimental and placebo groups. * p < 0.05- statistically significant difference between the 2 T and 3 T
Table 2 Maximal physiological responses during increasing cycling exercise following single-dose (2 T) and long-term (3 T) doses of supplements in the experimental and placebo groups (HR - heart rate; RER - respiratory exchange ratio; [La] - blood lactate concentration)
