Common questions: Physical Performance & Healthy Aging
What is VO₂ max and why does it matter?
VO₂ max is the maximum amount of oxygen your body can use during exercise. It is a key measure of cardiorespiratory fitness and is widely used to track healthy ageing.
What is sarcopenia?
Sarcopenia is the age-related loss of muscle mass and strength. Screening finds it early, when targeted exercise and nutrition can make the most difference.
