On the Cellular Basis of Aerobic Fitness : Intensity-Dependence and Time-Course of Cardiomyocyte and Endothelial Adaptations to Exercise Training
Beneficial effects of exercise are closely associated with fitness and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Capacity for oxygen transport increases mainly by improved cardiac function, including larger chamber volumes, myocardial hypertrophy, and enhanced diastolic and systolic function. Higher arterial...
