Visual analogue scale values for fatigue of the right and left hands immediately before and after the 10 min fatigue-inducing physical task session. Just before (open columns) and after (closed columns) the fatigue-inducing physical task session, participants were asked to subjectively rate fatigue levels of the right hand (a) and left hand (b) using the VAS, ranging from 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum). Mean and SD. **P < 0.01, paired t-test. n.s., not significant, paired t-test. VAS visual analogue scale
