Hi All.
Over the past 4 weeks I have tried hard to drop some weight and improve my overall fitness.
These efforts have included regular walks (around 5 miles per day / 4 times a week) and eating much healthier.
I have dropped 20 pounds in four weeks and my resting heart rate has declined from an average of 53 bpm to 43 bpm.
I know I'm not a super athlete but over the same period my VO2 Max Score has gone from an score of 34 to now 31.
My VO2 Max Score is going backwards and is inconsistent with my other health readings.
I feel much fitter and healthier but concerned about my fitness.
I normally walk the 5 miles in just over 1hr:8min but have trouble running due to knee replacement surgery.
Any suggestions on the VO2 Max Score please.
Thanks for reading.
Col
