VO2max
-
You have to go to the Progress widget on your watch, then scroll a bit down. Or you can find in the Suunto App, Training Zone - Training - Fitness Level (choose it from the right drop-down menu).

@alex-erhard scroll down?

@larrybbaker In the coach I see the training, the recovery, the intensity of the training, the scope, the impact but no VO2max

@alex-erhard did you read what I wrote?

@alex-erhard are you doing activities that generate a VO2max? do you see it in the activity specific page?
-
@alex-erhard what kind of sport do you do? Running? I think only running produces VO2Max. Some of the users have reported that VO2Max is was not visible in the beginning, they had to do multiple runs.

@timecode Is that the IOS app? It looks so much cleaner than Android!

@Matt-Cooper-Kay indeed it is the iOS app. It’s cleaner, but it also has less functions and setting than the Android app : )

@timecode
Welcome in the dark side.

@Mff73 I am there since the very first iPhone and I like it

@timecode …and some users report that no matter how many runs they’ve done they’ve never seen VO2max.
I’ve had Vertical for 1,5 years and I don’t have it. (Well Cooper test S+ app gives me an estimation but still after all this time my Vertical keeps telling me to record one outdoor run in order to get insights about my fitness). The last sw update was supposed to make VO2max appear more easily, but no-one bothered to define the minimum requirements. I’ve tried with and without Suunto Smart belt. I’ve waited for a decent GPS fix before starting. I’ve tried running for 15 mins until exhaustion and I’ve tried to take it easier for an hour or so. Still nothing.
This is the moment when people usually start asking about my zone definitions… And then other people tell me to forget about VO2max because it is useless. Sigh.
My HR max is 185 (a few clicks higher than what I’ve seen in real life while taking it to the limit). My resting HR is 65 and the other limits in between are the watch defaults. Age 55, 187 cm tall and 125 kg.
This is my only major disappointment with Vertical, considering how easy it used to be with S9B’s old algorithm.
