Description
This podcast episode delves into the science of VO2 Max - the maximum oxygen volume one can use during intense exercise, and its pivotal role not just in athletic performance but also in longevity. Exploring the biological underpinnings, the episode illuminates how this key physiological measure relates to our body's efficiency in oxygen usage and energy production. It details how factors like genetics, age, sex, altitude, and training status impact VO2 Max. Joining me today is co-founder of PNOĒ analytics- Panos Papadiamantis. PNOĒ is a technology company that enables health professionals to integrate science-backed nutrition and training into their practice through breath analysis. A few things we go over:Introduction to VO2 Max: its definition and importance in exercise science.Brief on VO2 Max's history, physiological basis, and factors affecting it.How VO2 Max predicts athletic performance and its relation to heart rate.Overview of lab methods and wearable tech for estimating VO2 Max.Techniques to improve VO2 Max: high-intensity interval training (HIIT), endurance training, diet, and nutrition.Discussion on VO2 Max's limitations as a performance measure, including the role of lactate threshold and exercise economy.Expert insights on practical application of VO2 Max in training.Episode wrap-up and teaser for the next episode.Sponsors:LMNT - drinklmnt.com/NEURO - CODE NEUROFind PNOE here:https://pnoe.com/Find Panos here:https://www.linkedin.com/in/ppapadia/The Neuro Athletics Newsletter Instagram: louisanicola_Twitter : louisanicola_YouTube: Louisa Nicola
