You’ve probably heard about people that have extraordinary lung capacity which gives them the ability to exercise harder and longer than most people. A common way to test this is by doing a VO2 Max Analysis.  Get ready to run! Bring your workout clothes to your assessment. We’ll start by putting a space age looking mask on your face. This is connected to a tube that’s connected to a really expensive machine. You’ll start walking slowly. Over time, you’ll go a bit faster and faster … and then the treadmill will start inclining and get steeper and steeper.

Sounds a bit challenging? It is! That’s the point! We want to see how hard you can work. At some point (usually within 10 minutes), you’ll call it quits. Some people might think this is fun. Others might think it sounds like torture. Everyone is very intrigued about their VO2 Max.

This 15 minute process will show you:

• Your Max Heart Rate
• Your Custom Heart Rate Zones (so you exercise at the right intensity)
  • Your Low Zone (Fat Burn) and calories burned per min in this zone
  • Your Moderate Zone and calories burned per min in this zone
  • Your High Zone and calories burned per min in this zone
  • Your Peak Zone and calories burned per min in this zone
  • Your aerobic and anaerobic thresholds (you NEED to understand this!)
• Your heart rate recovery speed
• Your VO2 Max
• If your VO2 Max is Very Low, Low, Fair, Good, Excellent or Superior for your age
