Sex-Specific Equations to Estimate Maximum Oxygen Uptake in Cycle Ergometry

BACKGROUND: Aerobic fitness, assessed by measuring VO(2)max in maximum cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) or by estimating VO(2)max through the use of equations in exercise testing, is a predictor of mortality. However, the error resulting from this estimate in a given individual can be high, af...
