My interest in youth health and quantitative methods also spun-off into a collaboration with Steve Butterfield at the University of Maine examining fitness, aerobic capacity and/or cardiovascular health in youth. This includes examining change in performance over time, as well as factors that may lead to greater (or lesser) improvements in capacity, including age, sex, body-mass index, and sports participation.
