    Exercise tolerance and maximal oxygen uptake in healthy people from in Comas parish, 2022

    Physical activity is currently a global health issue due to the limited dedication to developing physical fitness. The loss of muscle strength or decreased aerobic capacity has been considered a harmful indicator for health. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), one in four adults does not engage in physical activity. As economic progress advances in developing countries, physical inactivity increases by approximately 70% due to greater use of transportation, new technology, cultural values, and urban growth (1). In 2018, the United Nations General Assembly (UN) addressed the political declaration on non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and implemented measures to reduce life-threatening risks and disabilities. The risk of dying from NCDs between the ages of 30 and 70 decreased by 4% between 2000 and 2016; however, this rate remains insufficient to meet the target set for 2030. It is essential for respiratory physiotherapists to be familiar with measurement tools, proper and timely evaluations for rehabilitation programs, and specific tests to assess patient conditions. Maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) is related to cardiorespiratory function and is considered the most reliable indicator for determining physical fitness at the cardiovascular and respiratory levels. Among the specific objectives is to determine the relationship between exercise tolerance and maximum oxygen consumption in healthy individuals. To achieve this, a project is proposed using a hypothetical-deductive method, as it focuses on studying the variable under investigation from the general to the specific.
