Abstract
Maximal oxygen uptake ( ${\dot{\text{V}}\text{O}} 2max) is conventionally normalized to body size as a simple ratio or using an allometric exponent < 1. Nevertheless, the most appropriate body size variable to use for scaling and the value of the exponent are still enigmatic. Studies tend to be based on small samples and can, therefore, lack precision. The objective of this systematic review was to provide a quantitative synthesis of reported...
