Why the study?
Does regular endurance exercise training improve maximal oxygen consumption and cardiac function in individuals over 60 years of age?
Does regular endurance exercise training improve maximal oxygen consumption and cardiac function in individuals over 60 years of age?
Regular endurance exercise with sufficient training stimuli can improve VO2max in the elderly to a similar extent as in younger individuals.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Sufficient endurance training may preserve VO2max in older adults; leaves open confirmation of cardiac output effects in RCTs.
Coudert et al. (2000) studied this question.
