What is a VO2 Max score?

0

From WikiPedia : “VO2 Max is defined as the highest rate at which oxygen can be taken up and utilized during exercise by a person. (The derivation is V – volume per time, O2 – oxygen, max – maximum). It is also called maximal oxygen consumption or maximal oxygen uptake. Expressed either as an absolute rate in litres of oxygen per minute (l/min) or as a relative rate in millilitres of oxygen per kilogram of bodyweight per minute (ml/kg/min), the latter expression is often used to compare the performance of endurance sports athletes.” The higher the VO2 Max score, the fitter you are.
