Medical Can i increase my vital capacity and peak flow

AI Thread Summary
Improving peak flow is essential for those preparing for army applications, and increasing VO2 max can be beneficial in this process. Aerobic exercise is a traditional method to enhance cardiovascular capacity, which in turn can contribute to better peak flow. While the discussion hints at exploring alternatives to standard aerobic exercises, the primary focus remains on the importance of cardiovascular fitness in achieving peak flow improvements.

The study provides critical new insights into the African Humid Period, a time between 14,500 and 5,000 years ago when the Sahara desert was a green savanna, rich in water bodies that facilitated human habitation and the spread of pastoralism. Later aridification turned this region into the world's largest desert.
