TEST FOR AEROBIC CAPACITY primary prevention/ risk reduction for cardiovascular or pulmonary disorder IMPORTANCE OF AEROBIC CAPACITY: important in many sport in order for the cardiovascular system to continuously provide the muscle with adequate levels of oxygen it serves as an index of cardiovascular and pulmonary function; it characterizes the functional capacity of the cardiopulmonary system to transport oxygen to the working muscles; it is one of the limiting factors in endurance performance. Two methods to assess aerobic capacity: a direct assessment of the maximal oxygen consumption (V ̇ O 2max ) an indirect assessment of V ̇ O 2max through a submaximal test. VO2 MAX direct assessment of V ̇ O 2max requires sophisticated equipment and procedures that may include oxygen and carbon dioxide analyzers, an ergometer on which workload may be modified, or collection of expired air volume measured via Douglas b...
