Abstract
The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that individual differences in the response of maximal O 2 uptake (V˙o 2 max ) to a standardized training program are characterized by familial aggregation. A total of 481 sedentary adult Caucasians from 98 two-generation families was exercise trained for 20 wk and was tested for V˙o 2 max on a cycle ergometer twice before and twice after the training program. The mean increase inV˙o 2 max reached...
