Total hemoglobin mass may better inform aerobic capacity assessment than concentration; leaves open performance effects of blood volume manipulation.
How do changes in blood volume and hemoglobin concentration affect maximal aerobic power in healthy young men?
Total hemoglobin mass is a more significant determinant of maximal aerobic power than hemoglobin concentration.
Kanstrup et al. (1984) studied this question.
