VO2
Testing
VO2 testing
is the way to measure your cardio fitness and maximize
your workouts. "VO2" stands for "Volume
of Oxygen"
and it is the rate at which you consume oxygen.
The test is performed using a graded exercise test at
various intensities either on a treadmill or a bike.
The results
from the test can be used to pinpoint your target heart
r ate for various workout zones. These workout
zones are highly individual and will allow you to
exercise at a level that will maximize your fitness
goal, such as fat burning, endurance training or cardio
strengthening.
Testing is
beneficial for individuals at almost any level of
fitness. Whether you are a beginner with the goal
of losing weight or an elite triathlete trying to gain a
competitive edge, you can get the most out of your workouts
by knowing your heart rate training zones.
Your VO2 test

*Body Composition assessment
*Health summary and assessment report
*Peak oxygen consumption(MaxVO2)
*Calories burned at different heart rates
*Aerobic and Anaerobic threshold
