Your VO₂ Max is one of the strongest indicators of cardiovascular fitness and is closely linked to longevity.
Through our partnership with Extension Health, NRTHRN Strong Unlimited members can measure their VO₂ Max, establish a baseline, train with intention, and come back to see how much they've improved.
Think of VO₂ Max as the size of your aerobic engine, a measure of your body's capacity to take in, transport, and use oxygen during exercise. It's one of the most recognized measures of cardiovascular fitness and an important marker associated with long-term health and longevity.
The good news? Your VO₂ Max isn't fixed. With the right training, you can improve it.
The NRTHRN Trainer is inspired by cross-country skiing, one of the world's most demanding full-body endurance sports.
By working the upper and lower body together, NRTHRN Strong training challenges your cardiovascular system while building strength, endurance and mobility.
VO₂ Max gives you a way to measure that capacity, and see how it changes as you train.
Extension Health is a New York longevity medicine clinic combining advanced diagnostics with a proactive approach to long-term health.
Your VO₂ Max assessment takes place at Extension Health's West Village location at 160 7th Avenue South, where their team will measure your VO₂ Max and help you understand what your number means.
