My first project in Python. What I’m learning

Started: 06/15/2020 — end: ?? I don’t know :)

Well, I decided to work with many datasets from my master's degree in Exercise Physiology. I got many files in excel of O2 Consumption (VO2).

To make myself clear:

The data is composed of many incremental tests performed in a treadmill where here velocity increased gradually, every 30 seconds until participants reach their maximum O2 consumption. Their maximum was determined when Plateau in the O2 curve was reached, Rate of perceived exertion (RPE) >18 points in the Borg scale from 0 to 20, and participant request to stop. It is worth mentioning that, as an evaluator, I always was energetic to motivate participants to keep in the exercise as maximum as they could.

We had — I mean the team that I worked with during my master — the evaluation pre, after 8 weeks after 16 weeks of exercise training. We started with 2 groups, Control and Combined Training (Strength training — 2 x week and 3 Aerobics). After this period the Control group started an exercise training program compound with only Aerobics (3 times week). Brazilian Elderly people (>60 years old) participated in this study.

I have many excel files (.xlsx), and inside of it, many sheets with individuals VO2 in an incremental test. from different moments, M0, M8, and M16, therefore, I have a huge dataset (4711 data points).

After explaining how I have all these data. Let’s start with programming in Python 3.8 where I use in Visual Studio Code.
