Hi!
I am new to Suunto. What is the difference between Running Performance Index and est. VO2max. (When looking on the run in Movescount, recorded with Ambit3 Peak).
Thanks very much for your help.
As my understanding Running Performance Index is the estimated VO2max calculated with Firstbeat algorithms. but what is est. VO2?This is an old thread but,
Running performance From ambit3 accounts for your vo2 max fitness AND running efficiency. You can do that easily and much more accurately now with stryd, lookup Running Efficiency formula.
Example two runners can have different vo2 max but finish race at same time, difference is running efficiency(mostly).
They use specific weight lifting trainings to your core and leg muscles to improve muscular oxygen absorption efficiency (leg) and running form(coremuscles), particularly hem strings for people genetically predisposed for such injuries (for those who have their genome sequenced, there is a specific gene that if you don’t have many copies of it you are prone to it)
vo2 max just aerobic fitness (you max input of oxygen) it is estimated from average value of many factors.
MC Est vo2 is (Was) estimation of your current oxygen intake. Sort of like IF but 100% is for for 12minutes instead an hour on TP.
