Implication

Highlights peripheral factors in aerobic capacity for trained youth athletes; leaves open whether muscle-targeted interventions improve VO2max independently of cardiac size.

Population

11 highly trained young competitive ice hockey players, aged 10-15 years

Intervention

Incremental exercise testing on a bicycle ergometer performed annually

Outcome

Oxygen uptake (VO2) at anaerobic threshold and at the end of maximal exercise (VO2 max) and their relation to left ventricular functionsurrogate

In highly trained young male athletes, local muscular changes rather than cardiac volume appear to be the primary determinants of aerobic capacity during growth.
