Growth and physical training with reference to heredity
TL;DR: Comparisons of the training-period changes in aerobic, anaerobic, and cardiorespiratory responses to maximum work on a bicycle ergometer disclosed that 10-yr-old trained twins improved more than untrained twins did in VO2max, and interage comparisons of the intrapair differences showed that both the 10- and 16-yr olds improved theirVO2max more than did the 13-yrolds.
