Multi-Stage 20-m Shuttle Run Fitness Test, Maximal Oxygen Uptake and Velocity at Maximal Oxygen Uptake [PDF]
Abstract The multi-stage 20-m shuttle run fitness test (20mMSFT) is a popular field test which is widely used to measure aerobic fitness by predicting maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 max) and performance. However, the velocity at which VO 2 max occurs (vVO 2 max) is a better indicator of performance than VO 2 max, and can be used to explain ...

Maximal oxygen uptake versus maximal power output in children [PDF]
Maximal oxygen uptake VO(2max)) is considered the optimal method to assess aerobic fitness. The measurement of VO(2max), however, requires special equipment and training. Maximal exercise testing with determination of maximal power output offers a more simple approach.

Improvements in Maximal Oxygen Uptake after Sprint-Interval Training Coincide with Increases in Central Hemodynamic Factors [PDF]
Introduction: Sprint-interval training has been shown to improve maximal oxygen uptake, in part through peripheral muscle adaptations that increase oxygen utilization.

The effect of intermittent hypoxia on insulin and ghrelin concentrations and VO2max in obese patients with type2 diabetes [PDF]
Purpose: Exposure to altitude and hypoxia environment cause to weight loss and variety of endocrine adaptations, that found this mechanisms could be a new tool for the treatment of obesity and diabetes prevention in the future.

Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2peak) has shown to be a good indicator for aerobic cardiorespiratory fitness (physical fitness). Increased physical activity and/or intensity can increase this maximal oxygen uptake. Previous studies have shown that the physical
