Pros And Cons Of Cardio-Mandatory Fitness Field Testing

2. According to Table 1 my fitness level for woman age 20-29 is excellent. If you round the class average from 43.84833333 ml/kg/min to 44 ml/kg/min the class as a whole would also rank excellent. The lowest estimated VO2 was 17.3 and the highest was 57.3. Most students where in the range of around 40 ml/kg/min to 60 ml/kg/min. When considering this comparison between my classification and the class we included the males as well which could have also have played a role in why the class ranking higher on average.

In other words knowing your maximal capacity or VO2 max can help subjects track their fitness levels and better determine the right intensity and duration to meet their
