Cycle Ergometer VO2 Max Test (Male vs. Female Athlete and Male vs. Female Non-Athlete)

The research question posed is, how does relative VO2 of males or females compare to each other? Research has shown that males will have an overall higher VO2 than females. Also, trained individuals will have a higher VO2 than those who are untrained. The purpose of this study is conduct VO2 max tests on trained and untrained males and female to observe the differences in VO2. If the subject is a male, then the VO2 will be higher than the females regardless of training.https://digitalcommons.gardner-webb.edu/exercise-science-research-proposal-posters/1026/thumbnail.jp

Absolute and Relative Handgrip Strength Across Gender

The purpose of this study is to evaluate existing differences between absolute and relative handgrip strength in men and women. It was hypothesized that male subjects will exhibit higher absolute hand grip strength, lower %BF, higher FFM, and higher forearm circumference when compared to women. However, men and women will have similar hand grip strength when compared relatively to body composition.https://digitalcommons.gardner-webb.edu/exercise-science-research-proposal-posters/1076/thumbnail.jp
