- 1Direct measurement: max exercise test with oxygen analyzer
- 2Estimation: use submaximal tests or field tests (Cooper 12-min run)
- 3Cooper test: VO2max ≈ (distance in meters - 504) / 45
Worked Examples
Инпут
Ran 2800 m in 12 minutes
Резултат
VO2max ≈ (2800-504)/45 ≈ 51 mL/kg/min (excellent)
Young adult fitness level
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ✕Over-estimating from submaximal tests
- ✕Not accounting for age/sex norms
Frequently Asked Questions
What's a good VO2max?
Highly age and sex dependent. Young males 40-60, females 35-50 mL/kg/min are good.
Does VO2max improve with training?
Yes, aerobic training increases VO2max 15-25% with consistent effort.
