Yo-Yo test
VO2 max calculator.

Enter your result to estimate your VO2 max in ml/kg/min.

How it is calculated

IR1: VO2 max = 0.0084 × distance (m) + 36.4. IR2: VO2 max = 0.0136 × distance (m) + 45.3. The distance comes from the level table (each bout = 40 m).

Equations from Bangsbo et al. (2008). They estimate VO2 max for trained players; use the distance itself to compare your own results.
