IJERPH, Vol. 16, Pages 3889: Cardiorespiratory Fitness Normative Values in Latin-American Adolescents: Role of Fatness Parameters
In conclusion, our study provides age- and sex-specific reference values for CRF ( V ˙ O2peak, mL·kg−1·min−1). The anthropometric parameters were inversely associated with CRF in all ages in both sexes. The obese group had worse CRF than their healthy counterparts independent of anthropometric parameters used to determine obesity.
