The VO2 Max Calculator helps you estimate your VO2 Max, which is a measure of your aerobic fitness. VO2 Max represents the maximum amount of oxygen your body can utilize during intense exercise.
VO2 Max is the maximum rate of oxygen consumption measured during incremental exercise. It is an important indicator of cardiovascular fitness and aerobic endurance.
The VO2 Max Calculator uses your age and heart rate to estimate your VO2 Max. Simply enter your age and heart rate, and click the "Calculate VO2 Max" button to see your result.
VO2 Max typically declines with age. This decline is due to a decrease in maximum heart rate and muscle mass, as well as other physiological changes. However, regular aerobic exercise can help maintain a higher VO2 Max as you age. Understanding your VO2 Max in relation to your age can help you set realistic fitness goals and monitor your cardiovascular health over time.
VO2 Max values can vary based on age and gender. Here is a table that shows average VO2 Max values for different age groups:
Age Group | Men (mL/kg/min) | Women (mL/kg/min) |
---|---|---|
20-29 | 38-48 | 32-42 |
30-39 | 35-45 | 30-40 |
40-49 | 32-42 | 28-38 |
50-59 | 29-39 | 25-35 |
60+ | 26-36 | 22-32 |
