Listen "VO2max is Simple! And ... Complicated! "
Episode Synopsis
The relationship between V02max—your maximum rate of oxygen consumption during physical exertion, adjusted for your weight—and almost all aspects of health, fitness, and longevity are now well understood. It is, in a word, crucial. And we are reasonably good at prescribing exercise "doses" targeting improving your own measure, But what is well understood is how it can all get muddled by outside factors, like air quality.

The full episode, and a complete transcript, are available for Premium members. You can find out more at simplavida.com.
