    My Garmin gave my VO2max as 49 at age 63. I went for a wattbike test and it came out as 37!

    I like the "unrehearsed discussion " format better than reading an AI script.

    I don&apos;t look at V02 max at all after I have been doing 10k time trials runs once a three months. That tells me a lot more about my running.

    At age 69 , VO2 max 40, &nbsp;per Garmin that is pretty good- &nbsp;but hey who knows

    Peut on garder la meme VO2 max à tout age ? On nous soule avec la VO2max de Kilian jORNET de 90. Mais toujours à 40 ans ? J&apos;en doutr

    At age 52 my V02 Max is 55 according to my Fenix 8 watch. &nbsp;I log 35-50 MPW and I strength train 4-5 days a week. As a contractor I’m in the sun daily with my young employees and that keeps me young and healthy. I rarely use sunscreen because my body requires LOTS of D3. Eat healthy foods. I do eats beets and lots of green vegetables. I also eat a HIGH PROTEIN DIET. Do two small speed sessions per week and keep the other days easy. Walk/run on your easy days and keep HR low. Sleep like a Pro with 7-9 hours per night.

    Hi everyone! Could you share your VO2 max values ​​for comparison? Thanks in advance.

  • @ShaneDorrian-x2k · 2 months ago

    I wouldn’t trust the watch for V02 Max, go to a lab if you want properly tested.

    your watch DOES NOT measure your VO2Max with any accuracy.<br>an actual test does...
