VO2 MAX TESTING
A VO2 MAX test is the best fitness assessment tool available to
accurately identify appropriate training intensities specific to your
fitness goals.

ADVANTAGES OF VO2 MAX TESTING
• Burn more fat
• Maximize your workouts
• Eliminate training plateaus
• Decrease fatigue and injury potential

Some fitness professionals refer you to a chart on the wall averaging all age groups
and fitness levels. Others estimate intensity based on your perception of how hard
you are working. In either case, there is a wide range of target heart rates, differing
by as much as 30 beats per minute!

Professional athletes know that VO2 testing is the best way to measure your cardio
fitness and maximize your workout. Until now, cost and complexity limited its availablity
to only elite level athletes at hospitals and universities. The KORR Cardio Coach can
give you accurate VO2 results in a simple, affordable 10 minute test.

A Cardio Coach VO2 test give you the most comprehensive fitness assessment
available including:
• Calories burned at different heart rates
• Peak oxygen consumption
• Aerobic and Anaerobic thresholds
• Target Intensity Zones

With this test, Peak Performance Training can customize a workout based on your
unique level of fitness instead of a formula. By training in your unique Target Intensity
Zones, you will see results you never thought possible.

OPTIMAL TRAINING ZONE
Each person has an optimal training zone, sometimes called target heart rate.
Exercising at different levels of intensity will meet different fitness goals. Some
intensities burn more fat, some increase endurance, and some focus on
strengthening your heart. Charts you see on exercise equipment showing target
heart rates are based on age and weight. The Cardio Coach measures your precise
target heart rate based on anaerobic threshold, then calculates your unique Target
Intensity Zones. These zones give you the precise heart rates necessary to optimize
each level of exercise and maximize your results.
