      I just come from a walk exercise and the vo2max has changed…
      Maybe that is just for for walk and run basic exercise. It make sense because the 2 exercises that gave me a vo2max estimated were with ascent, so the vo2max is so poor. To have good data the ground must be flat, no ?

      With Trail Running sport mode you will have also VO2 estimation, in my case it is pretty consistent with the flat runs, but maybe my trail runs are flattish for the algorithm (not for me), I do between 300-450m for 13-14 km and the VO2 only changes some tenths.

        @cosmecosta i’ll try with this type of exercise next time. Maybe with bike exercise it need a power sensor to give data.
        What about the custom exercises ?

          From what I have read bike exercise won’t give you VO2, am I right @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos?

          Regarding custom sport modes if they are based on running/walking sport modes you won’t have problems. Actually my running and trail running sports modes are custom ones.

              @ink357 I think it is the combination of a pace of 7:30 min/km in combination with an average heart rate of 170.

              What is your max HR?

                  In order to have correct measurement of VO2Max you should run on flat terrain.
                  Trail running with lots of ascent for sure will result in worse VO2Max.

                    @ink357 is your weight correct in the watch? Check it out.

                    VO2max is related with weight.
