    Introduction Astrand-Rhythmic test is a test conducted to find the maximal oxygen uptake also known as the VO2max of an athlete. It can be used on elite athletes and individual athletes. This test helps to measure the ability to perform. The test can be done on an ergometer or on a treadmill. The measurement of the VO2max is the best measure of the cardiorespiratory system. This is important information as it indicates the body’s ability to transport and consume oxygen. There are two ways to measure

    A number of objective criteria can be used post-test to determine whether or not the peak VO2 value during the test can truly be considered a maximal value. VO2max is thought to be the best indicator of aerobic capacity and therefore of aerobic fitness. It is also a relatively good predictor of endurance performance (however it is not the only

    Anaerobic Capacity put him in between the 60 to 65 percentile. These scores indicate that Victor trains more with resistance than aerobic type exercises because of the high score of his Mean Power. These scores also correlate with his VO2 Max test we preformed earlier. His VO2 Max of 3.4 is low compared to the high end of the spectrum for that test and indicated that Victor focuses more on resistance than aerobic. Terry’s score put him in between the 70 to 75 percentile in Mean Power but put him in the 95th

    VO2 Max Test Objective of the test: To work out how much oxygen can be utilized during an intense exercise test‚ the maximum capacity of oxygen used in the body Background of the test: The aim of this study was to create and evaluate a submaximal cycle ergometry test based on change in heart rate ( HR) between a lower standard work rate and an individually chosen higher work rate. In a mixed population ( n = 143) with regard to sex (55% women)‚ age (21-65 years)‚ and activity status (inactive to

    Abstract: Maximal oxygen consumption (VO₂max) is an excellent indicator of a person’s physical fitness level. It can also be used for many other things including diagnostic tools for physicians. In this study‚ two different methods of collecting maximal oxygen uptake scores were compared. The first being the predicted VO₂max score attained via the Rockport test and the second being indirect calorimetry VO₂max score attained through cycle ergometer and an attached metabolic cart. Ten males and nine
