Survival of the fittest? Peak oxygen uptake and all-cause mortality among older adults in Norway To determine the cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) levels needed to avoid the Grim Reaper (Death) among older adults. We hypothesized that an above aver…

For anyone wondering about the connection of peak VO2 to mortality:

In individuals aged 70-77 with peak VO2 <26.5 (male) and <22.2 (female) over a year, risk of death 2 to 5-fold higher than a high peak VO2 group
