Why the study?
Does aging alter the cardiorespiratory responses to brief and intense intermittent exercise in endurance-trained athletes?
Population

Comparison
Force-velocity test and maximal graded exercise. vs Young athletes (mean age 24.8 years)
Design
Cross-sectional

Clinicians may anticipate consistent relative effort in older trained athletes during intervals; leaves open generalization to untrained or clinical groups.
Does aging alter the cardiorespiratory responses to brief and intense intermittent exercise in endurance-trained athletes?
Aging does not significantly alter the relative cardiorespiratory response to brief intense intermittent exercise in endurance-trained athletes, although absolute peak responses are reduced.
Chamari et al. (2000) studied this question.
