| Abstract | ||||
| While higher spectrum is associated with wellbeing many national and international organizations that focus on health, e.g. the American College of Sports Medicine (Ehrman, 2010) and the World Health Organization (World Health Organization, 2010), recommend exercise interventions targeting CRP. Because this health-related fitness parameter must be monitored periodically to evaluate its progress, appropriate tests should be applied. Consequently, the lower spectrum of cardiorespiratory power (CRP) is associated with heart and pulmonary diseases (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, coronary heart disease, chronic heart failure, and intermittent claudication) (Pedersen and Saltin, 2006), its higher spectrum is linked not only to the absence of the aforementioned diseases, but also to wellbeing. Maximal oxygen uptake, i.e., the maximal quantity of oxygen received by human body through the respiratory system and transferred from lungs to tissues through the cardiovascular system where it is consumed, is regarded as the gold standard in the assessment of CRP. | ||||
