The volunteers» physical fitness was also assessed through a standing long jump test, which assesses lower - body muscular strength, and a 20 meter shuttle run test, which assesses cardiovascular fitness through maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max). (physiologyinfo.org)
VO2 max (also referred to as maximal oxygen consumption, peak oxygen uptake) is the maximum rate of oxygen consumption as measured during incremental exercise, usually on a treadmill or cycle ergometer. (blog.bridgeathletic.com)
