One thing I want to add here just before answering that. View to max for me in the same way as power. You can look at it in relative terms and absolute terms as well.

I would say that in this case here, it comes very much down to technique. But if you practice this a little bit that you can boost it above 70. What? Not a problem. Wow. Yeah.

I've seen some crazy numbers. I don't even have to go into the raw data. You just see it on the screen and say, okay.

No, so it would be a little bit more prolonged than that if you create an oxygen depth in your body. But one thing that I think also here is important too, because this is also one of the things that is a little bit challenging when you read a lot of research too, is that very often we take that research for granted or it's good.

There is a lot of things around it that we don't have access to or we don't know. And also one thing that also is sometimes a challenge

is for people to understand also whether the technology they are using one is it good for what you really are doing here so you can get a lot of machines that can do measure some kind of oxygen uptake or ratios and other things but it doesn't mean that it necessarily is a good instrument for what you want to do and the second part of it also is that we have to understand where are we measuring

Obviously, in this case, when we do oxygen measurement, we measure it on the exhaust and not in the muscles. And that's also an important difference here, because if we go to the point, and I think we're going to run out of time if we continue on this path here, but if basically you look at cellular or basically cell respiration, the numbers you'll see... Much higher.

No. Again, here, I think it comes down to just staying true to some principles that can guide us. The good thing with VO2max testing is that they're the generally accepted standard for doing this is a graded exercise test. And you go through that and it will produce fairly comparable numbers for most people to relate to.

Of course, the question becomes also to what extent you're able to influence this as well, because there are some practices that they want done in a very rigorous way. They even almost prescribe what you should do the days leading before and another where you just come in and they just put you through a test and then you get what you get.

What I would normally do is I would try to create some standardized protocol from time to time. And that means not only the testing itself, but also what happens a little bit before. Without it, it becomes too invasive into people's lives, like standardizing what you do the days before and all these kind of things. I think this is impractical for most people.
