VO2Max is a measure of your body's efficiency in utilizing oxygen during exercise. It serves as an objective indicator of your fitness level and is a crucial marker for longevity. The process begins when you inhale, as your lungs absorb oxygen and transfer it to your bloodstream. Red blood cells then carry this oxygen to your organs and muscles. Oxygen is essential for muscle cells to generate ATP, which is the primary energy currency of the body. ATP supplies the necessary energy for muscle contraction, movement, and physical exertion. Your breathing rate increases during exertion because the more oxygen your body can process, the more ATP it can create.
An elevated VO2Max score indicates that your cardiovascular and muscular systems are working together with exceptional efficiency, allowing your body to absorb, transport, and utilize oxygen more effectively. This increased efficiency results in greater energy delivery to your muscles, leading to enhanced endurance, improved performance, and faster recovery. For these reasons, VO2Max is regarded as a premier indicator of cardiovascular fitness and overall long-term health.
We strongly advise a VO2Max assessment, particularly if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms:
As it is a primary marker for longevity, we suggest an annual test to evaluate your current level and determine training requirements to enhance your prospects for healthy aging. This biomarker is an excellent tool for monitoring the impact of your cardiovascular and interval training on your longevity. VO2Max provides valuable guidance for setting your goals and directing your training efforts. A lower initial reading presents a significant opportunity for improvement.
Our primary commitment is to help individuals feel their best at every stage of life and to support them in achieving longer, healthier lifespans. To accomplish this mission, we adhere to several fundamental principles:
At The Longevity Practice, our approach centers on identifying health risks before they develop into problems, using early and accurate diagnostics. Rather than simply reacting to illness, we develop clear, individualized strategies designed to preserve health over the long term. Our aim is to provide each patient with a thorough understanding of their own body, complemented by actionable steps they can implement immediately. By placing prevention and clarity at the heart of our practice, we empower patients to construct a longer, healthier life.

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:
