Building a Low-Cost Portable VO2 Max Mask
Maximal oxygen consumption more commonly known as VO₂ max is the gold standard indicator of cardiorespiratory fitness and a stronger predictor of all-cause mortality than traditional health risk factors such as smoking, diabetes, and hypertension. Despite being recognized as a clinical vital metric …

Improving the Accuracy of the VO2 max Prediction Obtained from Submaxial YMCA Testing
Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) is the best criterion measure for aerobic fitness and the prescription of exercise intensity for programs designed to enhance cardiorespiratory fitness. There are two ways of obtaining VO2 max: maximal tests, which require subjects to exercise to the point of …

A prospective cohort study of the correlation between chest circumference and spirometry measurements over a 19-week intense training programme
… in endurance activities appears to increase VO2 max and the strength of the respiratory muscles. Thus, the aim of the study was to determine whether a strong, significant correlation between chest circumference measurements and spirometry measures existed in a young healthy active population, …

A comparison of maximal oxygen uptake achieved from a horizontal and inclined treadmill test
… was to compare two protocols and the resulting VO2 max obtained. In one protocol grade only was used to impose greater workloads; in the other protocol speed only was used to impose greater workloads. In addition, maximum heart rate, perceived general fatigue, leg fatigue and cardiorespiratory …

The physical and physiological difference between soccer academy players and their non-academy teammates
… with three fundamental performance tests; VO2 MAX (aerobic endurance), Illinois agility run [IAR] (agility) and vertical jump (anaerobic power). No significant difference was observed in the performance tests or anthropometry. Therefore it must be assumed that the soccer academy has not yet …

The Effect of a Bcaa Supplement with and without Cho on Performance in Recreationally Trained Cyclists
… from the GSU cycling team (n=6). Each subject's maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) was determined on an electrically braked cycle ergometer using a graded exercise test. In a randomized, double-blind, crossover design, subjects received one of three supplements prior to exercise: BCAA-1 teaspoon …

A Quantification Of The Metabolic Demand Wrought By Explosive Ordinance Disposal Load Carriage
… sprint, sled pull), and cardiovascular fitness (VO2 max) to give insight to the relationship between strength, power, and cardiovascular fitness and aerobic capacity under load. Findings include an increase in HR, VO2, and RER through all stages and an increase in RER through the second and third …

Effects of aerobic exercise and weight reduction on carbohydrate metabolism during submaximal exercise in sedentary, overweight women
Hormonal and metabolic responses to submaximal exercise were studied in 11 sedentary, overweight women who participated in an 8 week aerobic exercise program (80% VO2 max) while consuming a hypocaloric diet. A maximal and submaximal treadmill exercise test were performed before and after the …

Analysis of exercise intensity and energy expenditure of women participating in the Curves exercise program.
… was 119 ± 15 b/min which was equivalent to 79% max HR or 63 % HRR. Thirty-three women (52.7 ± 6.68 yrs, 193.1 ± 31.73 pounds, 1.8 ± 0.28 L/min VO2 max) performed the Curves 30-min workout on two occasions. Results show that the mean RER to perform the 30-min workout was 1.00 ± 0.07 and 0.98 ± …

The Relationship between Aerobic Fitness and Concussion Risk, Severity, and Recovery in High School Football
… completed aerobic fitness (i.e., estimated VO2 max) and baseline neurocognitive tests (i.e., ImPACT). Concussed athletes completed ImPACT every 24-72 hours until they were asymptomatic or returned to baseline levels. A post-season questionnaire assessed unreported concussions and symptoms. …

The comparison of physical fitness between Type Ii diabetics and the apparently healthy population
… Although significant differences were found in VO2 max and PWC max in both males and females, the results were conflicting. Since significant differences in most fitness variables existed, it must be assumed that Type II diabetics do not belong to the apparently healthy population fitness wise, …
