Abstract excerpt
AIM: To analyse and compare the ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme), ACTN3 (actinin-3) and AMPD1 (adenosine monophosphate deaminase 1) genetic variants, oxygen uptake (VO2max), heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP) and body mass index (BMI) of elite high altitude mountaineers and average athletes. METHODS: Elite Bulgarian alpinists (n = 5) and control group of athletes (n = 72) were recruited. VO2max was measured...
