P = 0.666). At 0.05 Hz repeated squat-stands, time-adjusted ratios were similar for all groups (all P > 0.605). These findings suggest exercise training modality does influence the directionality of the cerebral pressure-flow relationship and support the presence of a hysteresis-like pattern during 0.10 Hz repeated squat-stands in sedentary and endurance-trained participants, but not in resistance-trained individuals. In future studies, assessment of elite endurance and resistance training habits may further elucidate modality-dependent discrepancies on directional dCA measurements.
