  • Aerobic Capacity
    • Definition: ability to take in, transport & use oxygen during submaximal activity for prolonged period
      • Cardiovascular system
      • Musclefibre type & cell
      • Respiratory system
    • VO2 max: Definition: maximum oxygen consumption during exhaustive work
      • Test: MSFT
        • Evaluate (+ve & -ve)
      • Test:PWC170
        • Evaluate (=ve & -ve)
    • Factors affecting 02 capacity & VO2 max
      • Individual physiological make up (genetics)
