Abstract
⺠Orthostatic tolerance is unaffected by age and by fitness. ⺠Older individuals exhibited attenuated HR and SV responses to HUT. ⺠Fitter individuals exhibited less reduction in QÌ and more maintained TPR with HUT. ⺠Despite ageing- and fitness-induced physiological adaptations, the cardiorespiratory and cerebrovascular systems adapt well to orthostatic challenge in healthy individuals.
