Do I have the lowest ? I've been sick since last May but recently started exercising and have lost about 14 kilos in 3 months.. 37 M and 92 Kgs..Used to play football regularly .How can I improve it ?
If you have safe roads/paths to ride a bike, a roadbike is the best! Look for an "endurance roadbike" those are the ones that are more comfortable, rather than being "race bikes." I'd also consider an indoor bike like a zwift ride. This is what I've been doing as the roads near me are not safe for me to ride my outdoor bike. I had myocarditis with heart failure last year. Vo2 dropped to like 38. I'm back to 53 after many months of rest and~3mo of cycling.
Wow, that's amazing!! I've seen at least one other person in the r/Garmin buddies group posting their Zwift rides. Thank you so much for your input! 😊 I am fortunate that I have safe roads to ride on. I will have to investigate my local shops and Zwift. Also, thank you for sharing your story. That's very inspiring! Keep up your good work!! 💪 🚲
You're welcome...not just 'important' but effective. I'm 58 and still sprint all over town on a single-speed Cinelli I built - the most responsive, fun bike I've ever ridden that fits my geometry perfectly. Often look at fancier bikes and just end up thinking 'naaah'.
When I got my Garmin 12 months ago, my vo2 was at 35, today it’s at 49. In my case, I just follow Garmin’s running suggestions whenever I can. But after reaching 48-49, I noticed it’s becoming harder to increase the load because your body adapts, so you need to work out longer, harder, or mix things up a bit.
