Mini-trampoline enhances cardiovascular responses during a stationary running exergame in adults

  FIG. 1. Timeline of the experimental design. The experimental procedures were performed in 3 different days (sessions). Each session 48 hours apart of the others. During Block 2, physiological responses were measured during the running EXG approached by two different protocols. Randomly, one protocol was performed on a hard wooden surface as the traditional EXG (EXG-PT) or it was performed on a mini-trampoline (MT-PT). After 48 hours, the participant finished the Block 2 performing the remaining protocol. During block 2 physiological responses were taken in 5 different moments: Baseline (moment 0), minute 2, 4, 6 and 8.

  FIG. 3. Significant differences on time effect within protocols: # represents difference from baseline (p<0.05); † represents difference from minute 2 (p<0.05); ‡ represents difference from minute 4 (p<0.05); ¥ represents difference from minute 6 (p<0.05). Significant differences between protocols: * (p<0.05); ** (p<0.01).

  FIG. 4. Significant differences on time effect within protocols: # represents difference from baseline (p<0.05); † represents difference from minute 2 (p<0.05); ‡ represents difference from minute 4 (p<0.05). Significant difference between protocols: * (p<0.05).
