Human endothelial function and microvascular ageing.

abstract：:We recently reported that a higher percentage of type I fibres in vastus lateralis and a greater peak oxygen uptake (O2) were associated with a greater initial rise in O2 (O2 /W, where W is work rate) following the onset of heavy constant power output exercise (above the lactate threshold, LT). It was unclear if these...
