Conversely, hemoglobin saturation decreased during exercise and increased during recovery. As demonstrated by the values in Table 1, temperature, hemoglobin saturation, and mean arterial pressure increased during exercise and then gradually decreased during recovery. However, recovery mean arterial pressure and hemoglobin saturation did not reach resting levels in any of the subjects. Recovery skin temperature only reached resting temperature of one subject; the other two subjects did not regain their resting skin temperatures before the experiment ended. Discussion:
