Forerunner 935 Not updating VO2 Max

I have looked at number of threads regarding the above topic but don't actually see a resolution. I am a 64 year old male who runs 5km max (1-3 times a week), plays golf and goes to gym. My training status is generally low or at best maintaining. Yet my VO2 Max is at 45 indicating that my fitness age is 20. When I originally got the watch my VO2 Max would change but for quite a while it has been static. The value of 45 is far too high and not changing. I have checked and my GPS setting is not UltraTrac. How do I get my device to monitor and update my VO2 Max?

I would recommend that you set your maximum heart rate to 156 (220 - 64) and then try to go for at least a 20 minute faster run. By the way, this is a forum for the Forerunner 955 and not the 935 ;-)

Thank you Martin and apologies for using the incorrect forum. I am sure you have nailed the issue as on my watch, the max heart rate was set at 208, I have no idea how or why.
