VO max is a measure of athletic performance and is generally considered an excellent health parameter for athletic performance testing. Various methods are used to generate such a result generally using a treadmill or cycle ergometer. Improvements have been shown through training. The upper limit of such improvement has been difficult to find in the literature in part because testing often starts with individuals already at a superior level of performance. As genetics may play a significant role in an individual's VO max, training can only contribute a portion of the result. Humans have a range of maximal oxygen utilization with upper limits approaching 100 mL/kg. This case report demonstrates a 96% improvement over time secondary to selective intense training. The intent was to document objectively amelioration of the VO max using a defined protocol on standardized testing equipment. This may lead to more efficient training of individuals desiring performance improvement.
最大摄氧量是运动表现的一项指标，通常被认为是运动表现测试的一个优秀健康参数。一般使用跑步机或自行车测力计通过各种方法来得出这样的结果。通过训练已显示出有所提高。这种提高的上限在文献中很难找到，部分原因是测试通常从已经处于卓越表现水平的个体开始。由于基因可能在个体的最大摄氧量中起重要作用，训练只能贡献部分结果。人类的最大氧利用率有一定范围，上限接近100毫升/千克。本病例报告展示了经过一段时间的选择性强化训练后最大摄氧量提高了96%。目的是使用标准化测试设备上的既定方案客观记录最大摄氧量的改善情况。这可能会使希望提高表现的个体得到更有效的训练。
