Typically, the higher your VO2 max, the better your cardiovascular health.
First, you’ll be fitted with chest leads to monitor your heart’s performance during exercise. This information will be broadcast to a computer monitor. During the test, you'll wear a tight-fitting face mask with an oxygen tube and a metabolic cart attached. These specialized tools help measure the oxygen breathed in and the carbon dioxide breathed out.
Throughout the test, the treadmill or bike will gradually increase in both speed and elevation, making it harder to keep moving. This will increase your exercise intensity until you reach your “maximum effort.” Once you finish, practitioners will combine your maximum effort and age, gender, and weight to calculate with your VO2 max.
A VO2 max test typically costs between $50 to $150, depending on where you go. The test is not usually covered by insurance.
