KNES 360 Lecture Notes - Lecture 28: Vo2 Max, Exercise Intensity, Myocyte
Document Summary
In humans : average for young healthy around 40s or 50s, older individuals who are sedentary or medical conditions, their vo2 max wont be high might be down in teens. What magnitude increase of vo2 max in sendentary people and subject them to rveet program: on average the magnitude of increase that we typically see in vo2 max is 15- 20% (in training program that lasts 4-6 months) Important to remember because in real world when you are dealing with people have to relay to them how much their vo2 max is likely to increase during a program: a. 10% c. 15% d. 20% e. depends: e is right because it depends on exercise stimulus and the perso(cid:374)"s health- depends on specificty, person with low vo2 max is likely to improve more than someone. Looking at indiduval increases in vo2 max in response to rveet. Youngest is 60 years old and 2 oldest is 71 years old 12 month study.
