  1. Mean (SD), mean difference (99% CI) (post-exercise minus pre-exercise), and P-value for stabilometric variables in the injured and uninjured legs, and in the control group before (pre-exercise) and after (post-exercise) short-duration sub-maximal cycling. A level of P < 0.01 indicates statistical significance.
