When we get into discussion of kind of like what protocols are going to like enhance the

O2 Max I think we can just assume like people who have like a baseline they're they're fairly fit you know

they're they're exercising maybe a hundred hundred fifty minutes a week already

they're getting their resistance training in so they're not like completely

sedentary because if you take somebody completely

sedentary I mean just walking or like you know going up the stairs a few times per day

that could probably increase their view to max so you know the lower your baseline

the less exercise it takes to increase kind of your view to max and

the protocol probably doesn't even matter. It's just like, just do something. You know, you can go on a bike and

like pedal with a very light resistance and your Vio2 max is going to increase.

Hey what's up my friend? Welcome back to the Legendary Life Podcast. I'm your host Ted Rice health

expert and coach to executives entrepreneurs and other high performing professionals.

Today we have a great interview for you. My guest is Brady Homer. Now he's got a master's degree in human performance from University of Florida and he also works as a researcher at examined.com, a website that examines the research surrounding supplementation and also

nutrition. But more importantly, he's the author of the book

Vio2 Max essentials, the comprehensive guide to aerobic fitness, how to improve it and what it means for

health performance and longevity.

Now if you've been paying attention you've been seeing this V.O to Max thing popping up again and again and

again and let me tell you I am slow to hop on to trends except this isn't a

trend there are decades and decades of research pointing to Vio2 max as quite possibly the most important indicator for your health. Now everyone thinks that they need to lose weight and lift

weights and that's true if you're over fat you want to get down to a healthy body fat range and if you're not lifting

weights you definitely want to do that however improving your V.O2 max I believe

based on the best evidence is the key to longevity or at least that's what the current evidence suggests.
