Effects of a period without mandatory physical training on maximum oxygen uptake and anthropometric parameters in naval cadets.

The effects of a period without physical training on the civilian population are well established. However, no studies show the effects of a period without mandatory physical training on maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 max) and anthropometric parameters in naval cadets. This study aimed to investigate ch...
