    Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max) in Mexico City residents was lower than in other countries. This highlights the need for local reference values for accurate exercise prescription and functional aerobic capacity assessment.

    Area of Science:

    • Exercise Physiology
    • Cardiorespiratory Fitness Assessment

    Context:

    • Functional aerobic capacity is crucial for overall health and is typically measured using exercise-stress tests.
    • Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max) is the gold standard parameter for assessing functional aerobic capacity.
    • Previous studies have established reference values for VO2 max in various populations globally.

    Purpose:

    • To determine the VO2 max values in a cohort of healthy adults residing in Mexico City.
    • To compare these values with established international norms and investigate potential discrepancies.
    • To explore correlations between physiological responses during exercise and VO2 max.

    Summary:

    • A maximal exercise-stress test was conducted on 25 healthy adults (20 males, 5 females) in Mexico City.

  • Measured VO2 max values were found to be significantly lower than those reported in international literature.
  • A linear correlation was observed between VO2/kg (or METs) and exercise load, heart rate, and double product.

    • Impact:

    • The findings underscore the importance of establishing geographically specific reference values for VO2 max.
    • This study emphasizes the need for individual laboratories to develop their own normal values and nomograms.
    • Accurate, localized data will enable more precise functional aerobic capacity evaluations and exercise prescriptions.
