Values are reported as the mean ± SD, unless otherwise indicated. S, Study; V, visual cortex; A, anterior cingulate cortex; Con, control; M, male; F, female; BMI, body mass index; %PMHR, % of predicted maximum heart rate achieved during exercise; MaxW, maximum watts of exertion; MaxRPE, maximum rating of perceived exertion on a 0–10 scale (Noble et al. 1983); MRS onset, minutes after end of exercise when MRS data collection began.
