VO₂max measures the maximum amount of oxygen your body can use during intense exercise. It is one of the strongest indicators of aerobic fitness and cardiovascular health.

|---|---|
| 20–29 | 38–48 ml/kg/min |
| 30–39 | 34–44 ml/kg/min |
| 40–49 | 30–40 ml/kg/min |
| 50–59 | 26–36 ml/kg/min |
| 60+ | 22–32 ml/kg/min |
Why VO2max Matters
Higher VO₂max values are strongly associated with better cardiovascular fitness and lower mortality risk.
