We investigated the effects of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor trandolapril (2 mg/o.d.) on the physical work capacity (PWC), the received perception of exertion (RPE), as well as parameters determining physical performance (i.e., energy metabolism, lactate production, and oxygen up...
