What is VO2 Max Testing?

VO2 Max is the maximum amount of oxygen your body can use during exercise. It is widely regarded as one of the best indicators of cardiovascular fitness and endurance performance

During our VO2 Max test, you will complete a graded exercise test on a treadmill while wearing a specialist face mask that measures your breathing. As intensity gradually increases, we analyse how efficiently your body uses oxygen and identify your true VO2 max, along with important training data.
