Figure 3:

Figure 4:

FIG. 4.Mean RRISD during supine breathing before and after exercise. There was a significant increase in RRISD after 4 weeks of exercise training (*P<0.05).

Figure 5:

FIG. 3. (a) Aerobic capacity and (b) mean submaximal heart rates at a given workload before and after exercise. There was a significant increase in aerobic capacity (*P<0.05) before and after training, and a significant decrease (*P<0.05) in submaximal heart rate at a given workload.

FIG. 5.Mean baroreflex gain (BRG) during phase IV Valsalva before and after exercise. There was a mean increase in BRG after 4 weeks of moderate exercise training (*P < 0.05).

Figure 6:

FIG. 6. (a) Mean RRISD and (b) mean baroreflex sensitivity before and after exercise during supine controlled breathing and 60degrees head-up tilt. There were significant increases in supine RRISD and supine BRS after exercise (*P<0.05), but no significant change in the tilted condition.

TABLE 1. Hemodynamic data during supine, controlled-frequency breathing. No significant changes were found between pre-exercise and post-exercise condition.
