Schematic illustration of the age-related decline in VO2max and the RT-induced increase in VO2max. VO2max may increase following RT when the initial relative VO2max is lower than 25 ml/kg/min for older subjects and lower than 40 ml/kg/min for young subjects, which are about 5 ml/kg/min or more below the average VO2max values of untrained subjects for each age group
