VO2MAX Testing

VO2MAX Testing

VO2max, also known as maximal oxygen uptake, is the measurement of the maximum amount of oxygen a person can utilize during intense exercise. It is a common measurement used to establish the aerobic capacity of an athlete prior to or during the course of training. This test can be performed using either a treadmill or a cycle ergometer. 

BENEFITS OF VO2MAX TESTING:

  • Accurate data for individual profile
  • Indicator of cardiovascular fitness
  • Identify anaerobic threshold
  • Determine maximal heart rate
  • Determine heart rate training zones
  • Data to inform aerobic training
