Genetics and sports: an overview of the pre-molecular biology era.

Medicine and sport science - 1 Jan 2009

Peeters M W, Thomis M A I, Beunen G P, Malina R M

Abstract excerpt

Estimated genetic and environmental contributions to individual differences in physical performance phenotypes, responsiveness to intermittent, aerobic and strength training, and specific skill training protocols are the focus of this chapter. Data are derived primarily from twin and family studies, although methods of analysis vary considerably. Estimates of heritability span a wide range for several performance...
