Posture-specific training and testing may optimize aerobic adaptations in sedentary adults; leaves open effects on clinical outcomes or diverse populations.
Does exercise training in supine versus upright posture improve posture-specific cardiovascular adaptations in sedentary men?
Cardiovascular adaptations to exercise training exhibit postural specificity, with central hemodynamic adaptations being most pronounced when tested in the posture used during training.
Ray et al. (1990) studied this question.
