- - - - Metabolic advantages in endurance
        
        Better glucose control
        
        Enhanced glucose use during endurance exercise
      - More adiponectin
        
        Higher concentration of intramuscular triglycerides
        
        Higher concentration of fatty acids
      - More slow twitch muscle fibers
        
        Resistance to fatigue/ greater endurance
      - Estrogen
        
        Important role in endurance because of glucose metabolism
    - - Testosterone
        
        Higher red blood cell count
        
        Better oxygen delivery
        
        More muscle mass
        
        More strength and muscular endurance
        
        Greater height
        
        Larger wingspan
        
        Pull More Water
        
        Lengthier stride
      - More fast twitch muscle fiber
        
        Quick and powerful bursts of strength
        
        Increased speed
  - - - provides instruction for making angiotensin converting enzyme
        
        DD genotype
        
        Related to the highest proportion of three genotypes for fast-twitch muscle fibers
        
        ID genotype
        
        II genotype
    - - Homozygous 577XX genotype
