How do oxygen uptake and heart rate differ between arm and leg exercise in sitting and standing positions?

Population

7 male subjects

Intervention

Arm exercise (cranking) in sitting and standing body positions

Comparator

Leg exercise (cycling)

Outcome

Oxygen uptake (VO2), heart rate (fH), pulmonary ventilation (VE) and respiratory frequency at rest, submaximal work, and maximal effortsurrogate

Arm cranking requires higher oxygen uptake, heart rate, and pulmonary ventilation compared to leg cycling at equivalent submaximal workloads above 300 kpm/min.
