Comparison of constant load exercise intensity for verification of maximal oxygen uptake following a graded exercise test in older adults

Abstract Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) declines with advancing age and is a predictor of morbidity and mortality risk. The purpose here was to assess the utility of constant load tests performed either above or below peak work rate obtained from a graded exercise test for verification of VO2max in...
