So what was your #?

Why were you tested?
I was monitored while in surgery. Many surgical patients are.

That's your opinion, but if I ever meet Jans...I will tell him Espola the VO2 aficionado stated your calculation is BS.
Then you would be a liar. I said no such thing.

You are running around in a cricle.
Is his equation a measurement for V02 max or not? It's a simple yes or no!
Maybe you need to reread
How to: Calculate VO2 max
Though the YYIR2 has been shown to be a moderately reliable predictor of VO2 max (8, 9), it is advised to use the test for what it was originally developed for – identifying an individual’s ability to repeatedly perform high-intensity aerobic work, which has proven to be a more sensitive measure of changes in performance than VO2 max. Regardless, for those who wish to use this method, the equations for calculating V02max are below:
- YYIR1 test: VO2 max (mL * kg-1 * min-1) = IR1 distance (m) × 0.0084 + 36.4
- YYIR2 test: VO2 max (mL * kg-1 * min-1) = IR2 distance (m) × 0.0136 + 45.3

E, since you know your V02. Run the beep test, then plug in your level achieved in his equation, then cross reference the attached table measureimg V02 max and report back if it's moderately reliable.

Did you shit yourself? Again?

Don't bother I remember my son just ran the beep test for shits and giggles a week ago. He got to level 15. Plugging it into Jans equation his score came out to a 54.276. Referring to the table that is a good V02 max for a 21 yr old.

Were they able to determine your Lactic Acid Threshold?
First of all, VO2 is not VO2 Max. That's like confusing your car's gas mileage with the capacity of the fuel tank.
Secondly, what is actually measured during a beep test is the number of cycles the athlete endures. From that, one can calculate an estimate of his VO2 Max, based on the average performance of athletes in the past, who apparently had their actual VO2 levels measured directly.

The beep test is 40 yard increments.
It appears you have no idea what you are talking about.
I see that you have nothing useful to contribute, as usual.
I am sure you are pleased.

Now I know why your forum nickname is Magoo. You wonder around the forum, thinking you know....but you're blind as a bat. Tarantado ka!

So, I forgot to type MAX. When pluggin in the level/distance ran he states "moderately reliable predictor of VO2 max". You're such a dickhead!
That is an entirely different test.
