1. Fitness Test
The Fitness Test is a modified version of the Balke and Ware protocol for maximal VO2 treadmill testing. The original
Balke-Ware protocol is a 20 minute test with a maximum elevation of 20%, the test has been modified to last 12 minutes
with a maximum incline of 12%. This protocol is appropriate for all users but mostly used for older, deconditioned, or
patient groups. During the Fitness Test, treadmill speed remains at a constant 3.4 mph. Treadmill incline is set at 0%
during the first minute, increases to 2% during the second minute, and increases by 1% per minute for the remainder of
the test. During the test you MAY NOT adjust the treadmill speed or incline, and you MAY NOT pause the program. If
your heart rate exceeds 150 BPM for more than one minute, the test will terminate automatically. Your heart rate results
are compared with charted data for your corresponding age and gender. Test results include your calculated VO2 max.
VO2 max is a physiological measurement of a body's ability to absorb oxygen and has specific correlation to your fitness
level. See "Calculation for VO2 Max" for more information
