VO2Max is a measure of your body's efficiency in using oxygen while you are physically active. It serves as a key indicator of longevity and provides an objective assessment of your fitness level. Upon inhalation, your lungs absorb oxygen and transfer it into your circulation. This oxygen is then carried by red blood cells to your muscles and organs. To generate ATP, which is the primary energy currency of the body, your muscle cells require oxygen. The energy necessary for muscular movement and effort is supplied by ATP. Your breathing rate increases during exertion because a greater capacity to absorb and use oxygen results in higher ATP production.
An elevated VO2Max score indicates that your cardiovascular and muscular systems are functioning with exceptional efficiency, allowing your body to more effectively absorb, transport, and utilize oxygen. As a result, your muscles receive a greater supply of energy, leading to enhanced endurance, better performance, and faster recovery. For this reason, the VO2Max measurement is regarded as a critical benchmark for cardiovascular health and overall longevity.
A VO2Max test is strongly advised, particularly if you experience any of the symptoms listed below:
Because it is a crucial 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 long-term health. The VO2Max measurement can direct your personal goals and the specific focus of your training regimen. A lower initial score presents a significant opportunity for making improvements.
Our primary commitment is to help individuals feel optimal at every stage of life and to assist them in achieving longer, healthier lifespans. To accomplish this, our work is centered on several key tenets:
At The Longevity Practice, we focus on identifying risks before they become health problems through early, precise diagnostics. Instead of reacting to disease, we create clear, personalized plans to maintain long-term health. Our goal is to give every patient a deep understanding of their body along with practical steps they can take today. With prevention and clarity at the core, we help patients build 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:
