13.Maximal oxygen uptake value (VO2max, ml/kg/min): Press the / buttons to set your maximal oxygen uptake value. Press OK.

VO2max is the maximum capacity for oxygen consumption by your body during maximum exertion. This is also known as aerobic power or maximal oxygen intake/consumption. VO2max is a commonly used determinant of aerobic (cardiovascular) fitness. The most accurate way of determining your individual VO2max is to perform a maximal exercise stress test in a laboratory. Aerobic fitness relates to how well your cardiovascular system works to transport and utilize oxygen in your body. VO2max is used in the estimation of energy expenditure.
