Yo-Yo test calculator: distance and estimated VO2max

Choose IR1 or IR2 and enter the level and shuttle recorded. Distance comes from the test's table; estimated VO2max from the Bangsbo equation.

The formula

Estimated VO2max (IR1) = 0.0084 × distance (m) + 36.4

Estimated VO2max (IR2) = 0.0136 × distance (m) + 45.3

Bangsbo, Iaia & Krustrup (2008), Sports Medicine 38(1):37–51, PMID 18081366. The equation estimates; it is not a clinical report and does not replace a direct measurement. It is the same calculation StatsCenter applies when a club collects.
