The Cardio-respiratory Fitness report includes your actual measurements compared with standard classifications based on your age and gender. An intuitive chart shows you the relation between VO2Kg and HR. At the end of the report you can find an indication related to the individual training zones based on the cardio respiratory parameters measured during the test.

The benefits of regular physical activity are now part of global awareness and people of all ages are joining the exercise movement to achieve GOALS. Your GOAL could be to loose weight, improve endurance, increase muscular strength or just look and feel better. Receiving clear infor-mation concerning your physical fitness will moti-vate you to continue with regular physical activity. Metabolic and standard fitness testing will provide detailed and comprehensive information of your overall physical fitness.

Cardio Respiratory Fitness (VO2max)VO2max is the maximum capacity to transport and use oxygen in the body. The highest value reached during a graded exer-cise is used to assess the performance of endurance athletes, to establish the health and fi tness of normal subjects and un-establish the health and fitness of normal subjects and un-and un-derstand limitations of the exercise capacity (lungs, heart, con-ditioning etc.)

The day of your assessment:You should wear comfortable clothes and low heel or athlet-ic shoes. To ensure your best performance, the day of your testing be sure to comply with following guidelines:

Flexibility:

Sit & Reach test (indirect measurement of the lower back and hamstring flexibility)

Muscular Fitness:

Endurance (curl-ups, push-ups, sit-ups), Upper and Lower body strength (1-RM )

Individual Exercise Prescription & Heart Rate (HR) Training Zones Getting objective data concerning your Fitness level is fun-damental in providing individual exercise prescription and ef-fective weight management programs. Training at the right intensity and duration is absolutely necessary in achieving your goals faster. Once you have obtained your VO2max and HR response, you are able to determine your individual train-ing zones (Fat Burning, Endurance, Interval Training etc.) and develop a customized training program.

VO2 max Testing

Consists of 10-12 minutes of exercise performance on a bike or treadmill breathing in a comfortable mask until maximum effort is achieved.

Body Measurements:

Anthropometrics, Body Fat Mass, Body Circumferences, Waist-Hip Ratio, Resting Heart Rate, Blood Pressure etc.

Testing subjects should have a light breakfast no less than 2 hours before the test; smokers should be asked to abstain from smoking for at least 8 hours.

Do not exercise (aerobic or strength training) the morning of the measurement.

Adhere to your usual medical regime. Subjects under pharmaceutical treatment (beta-blocker) or with history of coronary artery disease must consult the cardiologist before performing the test.

Maximal stress test exercise (VO2 max) must be supervised by medical staff.

V02max, how can you measure it?Measuring VO2 max is a simple graded exercise test in which exercise intensity is progressively increased until maximum effort is achieved.
