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.
