Role of Maximal Heart Rate and Arterial O2 Saturation on the Decrement of V·O2max in Moderate..

International Journal of Sports Medicine P. Mollard, et al. - We aimed to evaluate 1) the altitude where maximal heart rate (HRmax) decreases significantly in both trained and untrained subjects in moderate acute hypoxia, and 2) if the HRmax decrease could partly explain the drop of V·O2max...Thus, in moderate acute hypoxia, the reduction in SaO2 is the primary factor to explain the drop of V·O2max in trained and untrained subjects Read article: http://www.mdlinx.com/OrthoLinx/xml-article.cfm/1788841.
