Adaptation to a standardized training program and changes in fitness in a large, heterogeneous population: the HERITAGE family study

Article Abstract:

Results show that in a 20-week training program, subjects exercising at a steady-state heart rate and steady maximum oxygen intake can substantially vary their training power out put and increases in rate of power out put.

Familial aggregation of submaximal aerobic performance in the HERITAGE family study

Article Abstract:

This article discusses research on genetic factors contributing to submaximal aerobic performance phenotypes taken before and after endurance training of 20 weeks. Results show that familial/genetic factors, especially maternal inheritance, influence response to endurance training of sedentary subjects.

Reproducibility of maximal exercise test data in the HERITAGE Family study

Article Abstract:

Research was conducted to determine the reproducibility of cardiovascular, respiratory, and metabolic variables, during maximal exercise, in 390 HERITAGE Family members. Results show that reproducibility was high for all the parameters studied with little variation in the day-to-day measurements.
