VO2 max is:
the maximum volume (V) of oxygen (O2) your body can process.

It is a measure of how well the heart and veins are circulating blood to the muscles and other parts of the body.
Knowing your VO2 max can help you measure fitness and heart health improvements over time. VO2 max is especially helpful for athletes like runners, swimmers, cross-country skiers, and rowers to guide their training
