Beyond the VO2max plateau a new approach for measuring maximal oxygen uptake
Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) is typically defined by the presence of the "plateau phenomenon" during incremental exercise tests, in which O2 consumption levels-off in spite of increases in workload. This is thought to reflect a limitation in the capacity of the heart to pump O2 enriched …

The Reliability and Validity of the 30-15 Intermittent Field Test with a Ball
… separated by a minimum of 48 hours. Maximal intermittent running velocity (VIFT), heart rate at exhaustion (HRpeak), and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) were collected. Interclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) demonstrated good reliability during the 30-15IFT in VIFT (ICC = 0.88) …

Examination of a Self-Selected Speed Graded Exercise Test using an Automated Treadmill as a Valid Means to Measure VO2max
The use of graded exercise tests for measuring maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) is common practice in cardiopulmonary medicine. Limitations to VO2max are still being debated despite the concept being founded nearly a century ago. It has been suggested that measuring VO2max using traditional …

The Effect of Fetal Programming on Physical Activity Behaviors
… was measured four times: dominant handgrip maximal voluntary contraction (MVC), non-dominant handgrip MVC, left leg MVC, and right leg MVC. Additional measurements included height, weight, body composition, and maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) as a measure of cardiorespiratory fitness. …

Association between the gut microbiota profile, fat oxidation capacity during exercise, and leptin sensitivity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: The Edugution Project
… composition and overall metabolic health. As maximal fat oxidation (MFO) is typically assessed with protocols requiring two separate sessions or estimations from non-specific tests, a one-day test has been validated to assess MFO, its intensity (FATmax), and maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) …

Diet and media components related to central adiposity in prepubertal children
… and weekend television (TV) and videogame use. Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) and one 24-hour recall were used to assess fitness level and dietary intake, respectively. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to measure whole body percent fat mass (WB %FM) and central adiposity …

The comparison of physiological adaptations following a 4-week cycle and shuttle run-based SIT interventions
… that consisted of body composition assessment, maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) of hamstring and quadriceps muscle groups, Wingate 30-second anaerobic test and Time to Exhaustion (TTE) with breath-by-breath gas analyser to determine maximal oxygen consumption (VO<sub>2max</sub>). …
