Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2peak) with gas exchange	VO2peak will be measured during maximal exercise test with a gas exchange device. The highest value reached during the exercise phase of the maximal test (ergocycle) will be considered as the VO2peak. We will measure change of VO2peak before and after exercise training.	At baseline and following 12 weeks exercise training intervention
Secondary	Cerebral hemodynamics	Cerebral hemodynamics will be measured using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) system during maximal and submaximal exercise tests. We will measure change of cerebral hemodynamics before and after exercise training	At baseline and following 12 weeks exercise training intervention
Secondary	Cognitive functions at rest by a by standard pen-paper battery test	Cognitive functions will be measured at rest with a pen-paper battery test by a neuropsychologist. We will measure change of score to the cognitive tests before and after exercise training.	At baseline and following 12 weeks exercise training intervention
Secondary	Cardiac hemodynamics	Cardiac hemodynamics will be measured continuously during the maximal exercise test on bike using an impedance cardiography device. We will measure change of cardiac hemodynamics before and after exercise training.	At baseline and following 12 weeks exercise training intervention
Secondary	Standard echocardiographic parameter of left and right ventricular strain	global longitudinal strain (%) will be measued at rest for both ventricule	At baseline and following 12 weeks exercise training intervention
