The subjects had had to cycle at 70 percent of their so-called VO2 max, the maximum amount of oxygen a person's body can take in during exercise - an effort that made them breathe too heavily to carry on a conversation.

And in fact, looking at their cardio-respiratory function, which we do with a test call VO2 Max - it's a treadmill test, it gets steeper, it goes faster, you breathe into an oxygen mask, and we measure heart rate.

Because cardiovascular training generally increases what's called the VO2 max, which is a measure of your ability to get oxygen to your hardworking muscles.

Others involve measuring fitness based on the volume of oxygen consumed while exercising at maximum capacity (sometimes referred to as VO2 max), and then creating exercise workouts that raise the heart rate to between sixty-five and eighty-five percent of its maximum for at least 20 minutes three to five times a week.
