In contrast, other studies have found age-related changes in resting blood flow which have been attributed to increases in sympathetic tone [ 19 30 ] . Aging has been associated with reduced blood flow and vascular conductance during whole body exercise [ 18 ] . The reduction in blood flow and conductance have been related to alterations in cardiac output and blood volume due to aging [ 23 ] . Several of our resting blood flow variables approached significance (p values below 0.10) indicating that our results may have been significant with a larger sample size.
