Scientific Context

VO2 Max is the maximum amount of oxygen your body can utilize during exercise. It is a key indicator of cardiovascular health.

Mathematical Formula

15.3 × (Max HR / Resting HR)

Behind the Math

Named for the Latin 'V' (Volume) and 'O2' (Oxygen), the concept was popularized by Kenneth Cooper in the 1960s with his 12-minute run test while working for the US Air Force.

Expert Tip

You can improve your VO2 Max at any age. The most efficient way is through Zone 2 training (long, slow distance) combined with one session of HIIT (high-intensity intervals) per week to push your aerobic ceiling.
