VO2 Max

Service Description

*This test takes about 45 minutes; total 90 min time includes set up and analyzing report after session* VO2 max testing measures the maximum amount of oxygen your body can utilize during intense exercise. It's a key indicator of aerobic fitness and endurance, often referred to as your "aerobic capacity." During the test, you'll perform a maximal effort graded exercise protocol (running on a treadmill or cycling on the trainer) while wearing a mask that analyzes your oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide output. As the intensity increases, the test identifies the point at which your oxygen consumption plateaus, revealing your VO2 max. This data provides valuable insights into your cardiovascular and respiratory efficiency, helping athletes optimize their training, improve performance, and track progress over time. Athletes recieve a 6 page report detailing maximal metrics, ventilatory thresholds, HR training zones, suggestions on how to train their VO2, as well as graphs showing metabolic, ventilation, gas exchange and performance load vs hr details.
