About this document

Cardiovascular Changes from Endurance Training by Stella m is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Endurance training leads to several cardiovascular adaptations that increase maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max). These include increased stroke volume, decreased resting heart rate, enlarged heart size, increased blood volume, and greater muscle blood flow. Genetic factors influence the magnitude of improvement in VO2 max with training. Specifically, the HERITAGE Family Study found a strong familial pattern in the response of VO2 max to exercise training.
