VO2 Max and Longevity: How Cardiovascular Fitness Extends Your Lifespan

Why VO2 Max Is a Predictor of Longevity

VO2 max isn’t just a metric for elite athletes—it’s a powerful indicator of overall health and lifespan. Research from the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (2023) found that individuals with higher VO2 max levels have a 40% lower risk of premature death compared to those with poor cardiovascular fitness. This is because a strong aerobic system improves heart function, circulation, and metabolic efficiency.

How VO2 Max Protects Against Chronic Disease

Studies link low VO2 max to increased risks of:

• Heart disease (American Heart Association, 2023)
• Type 2 diabetes (Diabetes Care, 2022)
• Cognitive decline (Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 2023)
  Improving your VO2 max through structured training can reverse these risks.
