As you age, your VO₂ max becomes an increasingly important measure of longevity. In our coaching at Restore Human, we focus on measuring the metrics that matter. 📈📊

VO₂ max is the gold standard for assessing your cardiorespiratory fitness, a key component of long-term health.🫁🫀

VO₂ max is the maximum volume of oxygen your body can consume and use during exercise: your body’s power supply potential.

The results of a VO₂ max test help identify your exercise capacity and highlight areas for improvement.

The great news? We offer VO₂ max testing at our studio in Vancouver. Visit our website to book and take charge of your health.

Most people think they need to train harder to stay healthy, but one of the most powerful tools for longevity is actually slowing down. 🌀

Zone 2 training helps your body become more efficient at producing energy using oxygen. Over time, this builds a stronger heart, improves metabolic health, and supports long-term endurance. 🫁🫀

All zones of aerobic training have their place, but the right dosage varies from person to person. If you want more information on how to tailor a routine to your individual needs, send us a DM.📝
