VO2Max measures your body's efficiency in utilizing oxygen while you are physically active. It serves as an objective indicator of your fitness level and is the primary benchmark for longevity. During respiration, your lungs draw in oxygen, which then enters your bloodstream. This oxygen is carried by red blood cells to your organs and muscles. To generate ATP, the principal energy currency of the body, muscle cells require oxygen. ATP supplies the necessary energy for muscular movement and physical effort. Your capacity to absorb and use more oxygen directly correlates with increased ATP production, explaining why your breathing rate accelerates during strenuous activity.
An elevated VO2Max score indicates that your heart, lungs, circulatory system, and muscles are functioning in a highly efficient, coordinated manner: your body excels at absorbing, transporting, and utilizing oxygen. Consequently, 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 one of the most crucial metrics for assessing cardiovascular health and overall longevity.
We strongly advise a VO2Max test, particularly if you are experiencing any of the symptoms listed below:
Because it is the primary indicator of longevity, we suggest an annual test to assess your current level and determine what training is needed to enhance your prospects for healthy aging. It serves as an excellent follow-up metric to evaluate the impact of your cardiovascular and interval training on your longevity. VO2Max provides direction for your goals and training emphasis. Beginning with a lower value presents a significant chance for improvement.

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:
