Our First VO2 Max Testing Experience

This week's Addicted to Fitness is "on location" for Nick's first experience with VO2 max testing. Nick is joined by Dr. Ryan Adami, founder & medical director of Xcelsior Health in Tampa, Florida, to discuss the importance of knowing your VO2 max, the different methods used to calculate it, and how improving it could improve your lifespan. Dr. Ryan also leads Nick through the Ekblom-Bak test to calculate his VO2 max.
