Aerobic Exercise on Platelet Mitochondrial Function

Participants in the exercise groups were trained five times a week for six weeks. The regimen began with a 5-min warm-up and ended with a 5-min cool-down, both at 40% of heart rate reserved (HRR). The circuit training participants were trained for three bouts of 10-min moderate-intensity exercise (60% of HRR) with 1-min rest intervals at a stationary ergometer, a rowing machine, and an elliptical trainer, respectively. The cycling training group was trained on an ergometer for three bouts of 10-min cycling on a stationary ergometer.
