Beep Test VO2Max Calculator
Estimate your aerobic capacity with the Beep Test VO2Max Calculator. Enter your level and number of shuttles to determine your maximal oxygen uptake (VO2Max) based on your performance in the Beep Test — a progressive 20-meter shuttle run. Useful for athletes, fitness trainers, and anyone tracking cardiovascular endurance.
VO2Max Estimator Based on Beep Test
Beep Test VO2Max Formula
Where
- $$L$$ is the level completed
- $$SN$$ is the number of shuttles completed at that level
- Result is in $$\text{ml/kg/min}$$
The Beep Test, or Bleep Test, measures cardiovascular fitness and endurance. Participants run back and forth across a 20-meter distance, synchronizing with audio beeps. As levels increase (up to 21), time between beeps shortens, making the test progressively harder. Once two consecutive shuttles are missed, the final level and shuttle count are used in the VO2Max formula. The result is compared against age- and gender-specific norms to assess aerobic capacity, ranging from “Very Poor” to “Excellent”.
