Fit Test Program
The fit test program is designed to determine your estimated VO2 max or how well
your body utilizes oxy- gen. The test follows a progression in both speed and elevation
and lasts a maximum of 11 minutes. If your actual heart rate reaches 85% of projected
maximum before the end of the test, the program will end and your score will be based
on the stage you ended at. The higher your estimated VO2, the more fit you are.
