I do walk and run intervals during my workouts.

Is it better to use the outdoor run or outdoor walk workout in the apple watch Fitness app while doing this?

Does it affect your Vo2 Max? Which one is best for Vo2 max calculation?

Thanks!

In my opinion, changing the pace during your Outdoor Run exercise, because of your walking interval, will not give you an exact VO2 max estimate.

You should choose either to walk or run the whole workout, using Outdoor Walk or Outdoor Run.
