Table 1 Mean (±1SD) values of the slope, abscissa (Load0) and ordinate (Vmean0) intercept data for each regression line developed using both Vmean and Vpeak across the three loading ranges

  1. aIndicates values differs significantly (P < 0.01) from Vpeak at that load range
  2. bIndicates values differ significantly from the actual 1RM at that load range
