I notice that Vo2 max range ends at 60. Up to that point ranges are suggested in 10 year groups. I am turning 69 next week and it gets harder to achieve the high range as I age. Why is there no 70-79? 80-89? I could extrapolate, but I like the way your expectations are science backed. I intend to exercise as long as I can breathe. Can you improve the upper age range in your development? Is there a reason why it’s just 60+?

Hi MarshaLWH,
Here's a resource on how to Set up Cardio Fitness Levels. However, more specifically you can find VO2 details here: Using Apple Watch to Estimate Cardio Fitness with VO2 max

Take care.
If I understand your response, despite the fact that there is only a 60+ category of VO2 max expectations, my actual age is taken into consideration, and will be at 70 and 80 as well? Thanks!
Thanks for the reply!
