How Accurate Is Your Smartwatch VO2 Max Estimate?

I am amazed of how close the results are!

[@BTGCycling]

Pretty impressive honestly

Super interesting! Thanks for sharing! Do you think there is any benefit to testing one's VO2 Max other than for athletic purposes?

[@BTGCycling]

I don’t believe taking a single vo2max test is going to be beneficial for most people. From my perspective, it should be used to measure how much your performance has increased from training block to training block, year over year. I plan to do another in the future to see how much I can improve.

Do you use a Garmin as well or just an apple watch?

[@BTGCycling]

I do not use a Garmin, just the Apple Watch

“Technically superior” 😉🥵😎

I think almost anyone that rides their bike more than 10 hours a week will fit into at least the excellent category
