In this note, the authors deduce comparisons for the volumes of a manifold~\(M\) with different metrics from the comparisons of the lengths of their shortest periodic geodesics within free homotopy classes of curves on \(M\). Their basic tool is a rigidity result by \textit{G. Besson, G. Courtois} and \textit{S. Gallot} [Geom. Funct. Anal. 5, 731--799 (1995; Zbl 0851.53032)].
