Comparison
11-week running program in preparation for a 10… vs Control group of 4 women.

May support short-term training to boost fitness in sedentary young women; leaves open effects on resting cardiac structure or generalizability.
Does an 11-week running program improve maximal oxygen uptake and cardiac output in previously sedentary young women?
Short-term running conditioning in young sedentary women increases exercise cardiac output and stroke volume without altering resting left ventricular dimensions.
Wolfe et al. (1992) studied this question.
