The Fitness.jmp data table contains the results of an aerobic fitness study. Aerobic fitness can be evaluated using a special test that measures the oxygen uptake of a person running on a treadmill for a prescribed distance. However, it would be more economical to find a formula that uses simpler measurements that evaluate fitness and predict oxygen uptake. To identify such an equation, measurements of age, weight, run time, and pulse were taken for 31 participants who ran 1.5 miles.
Note: For purposes of illustration, certain values of MaxPulse and RunPulse have been changed from data reported by Rawlings (1988, p.105).
