Abstract:
1. Maximum oxygen consumption has been measured by means of three different exercises: cycle ergometry, treadmill running and uphill walking with a 20 kg-load. 2. Loaded walking allowed to reach a VO2 max level in average 2% greater than running and 13% greater than bicycling. 3. This finding suggest that VO2 max may depend on peripheral factors.
