A VO₂max test is a graded maximal exercise test performed on a treadmill or bike that measures your body’s ability to take in, use, and deliver oxygen during exercise. It provides an objective measure of aerobic fitness and endurance, along with personalized heart rate and training zone data. This test is commonly used to guide endurance training, assess cardiovascular fitness, and track changes in performance over time.
Disclaimer:
This test will be conducted using a portable metabolic device (VO₂ Master), which is an alternative to a traditional laboratory-based metabolic cart. The VO₂ Master measures oxygen consumption (VO₂) but does not directly measure carbon dioxide production (VCO₂), which limits the ability to calculate respiratory exchange ratio (RER). While the device has been shown to provide valid and reliable data, there is a higher risk of data variability, including potential over- or under-calculation of VO₂max and less precise identification of ventilatory thresholds. In such cases, the examiner will estimate thresholds and VO₂max based on heart rate and VO₂ responses during the test.

En quoi ça consiste
Most of the appointment is spent watching how you move and load your body — gait, squat, balance, mobility and strength work — with coaching and exercise adjustments in real time, and you leave with a clearer picture of your movement patterns and a plan to practise.
