Why VO₂ Max Testing Matters VO₂ max measures the maximum oxygen your body can use during intense exercise. It provides valuable insight into your potential, tracks how your body responds to training, and is one of the strongest predictors of longevity and overall health. Plus, it helps you see how you compare to established performance norms. Why Lactate Testing Matters Lactate testing helps determine how your body responds to different intensities of exercise. It identifies your training zones, tracks progress, and guides smarter programming for both performance and long-term health. What the Test Looks Like The test is graded, starting at a low intensity and gradually increasing every 5 minutes. You can perform it on a treadmill (by increasing speed) or on a bike/erg (by increasing wattage). At each stage, we record: * Heart rate * Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) * Lactate (if tested) The goal is to complete 8 stages (about 40 minutes), with the final 10–15 minutes being the most challenging. The test ends once you reach maximal voluntary fatigue, giving the most accurate picture of your fitness capacity. What You’ll Receive VO₂ Max Test → A printable sheet with your VO₂ max and other key physiological numbers, plus a brief debrief session immediately after the test. Lactate Test → Results analyzed and emailed within 24 hours, including personalized training zones and clear explanations of your key physiological markers.
