ALA MB100 User Manual VO2max Test (Maximal Aerobic Power) VO2max (Maximal Aerobic Uptake) is also called "Maximal Aerobic Power". It is a common description for the assessment of one's physical fitness of cardio-respiratory endurance (CR Fitness). CR Fitness refers to cardio-pulmonary vascular system in the body of oxygen transport and the use of physical activity as the ability to use.
Physical Activity Status Scale (PAR) Grade Description Sedentary to Light Exercise Avoid walking or exertion, e.g., always use elevator, ACT-00 drive whenever possible instead of walking. Walk for pleasure, routinely use stairs or occasionally ACT-01 exercise sufficiently to cause heavy breathing or perspiration.
ALA MB100 User Manual Percentile Value for Maximal Aerobic Power Maximal Aerobic Power can improve with training and decrease with age; world class athletes typically have high VO2max. Research suggests that when the VO2max is below the 20th percentile, it is often indicative of a sedentary lifestyle and associated with increased risk of death from all causes.
