VO2Max is a measure of your body's efficiency in utilizing oxygen during physical exertion. It serves as an objective indicator of your fitness level and is a crucial marker for longevity. When you inhale, your lungs take in oxygen that is then released into your circulatory system. This oxygen is transported by red blood cells to your organs and muscles. To generate ATP, the body's principal energy source, muscle cells require oxygen. ATP gives muscles the power they need for movement and physical effort. The more oxygen your body can take in and use, the more ATP you can create, which is why your breathing accelerates during exertion.
A higher VO2Max signifies that your heart, lungs, blood vessels, and muscles are all working together with particular efficiency: your body is better able to absorb, transport, and utilize oxygen. This process delivers more energy to your muscles, which enhances endurance, boosts performance, and speeds up recovery. This is why the VO2Max measurement is seen as one of the most vital indicators of cardiovascular health and long-term well-being.
We strongly advise getting your VO2Max tested, particularly if you experience any of the following symptoms:
As a key indicator of longevity, we suggest testing it at least once a year to evaluate your level and pinpoint training requirements to improve your chances of aging healthily. It serves as an excellent follow-up biomarker to determine if your cardiovascular and interval training has produced a notable impact on your longevity. VO2Max provides guidance for your ambitions and training priorities. Having a lower starting value offers a fantastic opportunity to make significant improvements.

In our practice, we rely exclusively on evidence-based methods and medical diagnostics that have been scientifically proven to make a difference. Our focus is on preventing the “four horsemen” of aging—cardiovascular disease, cancer, metabolic dysfunction, and neurodegeneration—rather than offering trends like epigenetic age tests or wellness drips. Our Prevention strategy addresses tailored exercises, nutrition, sleep, mental health and if necessary support by supplement and medication.
The cost for VO2Max Session is based on the German healthcare pricing system (GOÄ – Gebührenordnung für Ärzte). We encourage you not to stop at VO2Max test alone, but to begin your full Longevity Journey with us. Here is what our protocol looks like:
