Описание: In this video, I'll explain to you what is VO2 Max, along with metabolism and calories, as they have everything to do with each other.

VO2 max starts with metabolism and calories, but what affects metabolism? And what are calories? We must first examine catabolism and what is cellular respiration. You may also be wondering how to calculate calories? I'll answer that as well. And then I get to the core of what is VO2 max. What determines VO2 max? Two factors: cardiac output and blood oxygen uptake. This is why the cardiovascular system is so important for how to improve VO2 max. I also examine the relationship between VO2 max and exercise intensity, which is also crucial for how to improve VO2 max. You might also be wondering why is VO2 max important? That's because it's the ultimate indicator of longevity. Finally, I talk about VO2 max test and how to find VO2 max. This is episode 2 of my exercise physiology series. This is PT in a nutshell.
