Cardiovascular Fitness and Maximal Heart Rate Differences Among Three Ethnic Groups.
Farrell, S. W.
Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, v59 n2 p99-102 Jun 1988
Examination of differences in maximal heart rate and treadmill time among three ethnic groups revealed no significant age-adjusted differences among white, black, and Mexican-American males, and suggested that black females' lower maximal heart rate may be explained by their lower cardiovascular fitness level when compared to those of other females.
