Maximal oxygen consumption (V O2,max ) denotes the upper limit of aerobic energy flux through the cascade of oxygen transfer from the environment to tissue mitochondria, essentially to skeletal muscle mitochondria during intense exercise. A high V O2,max is a key component for athletic success in human and animal endurance sports. From a public health perspective, a high V O2,max is a validated negative predictor for cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. V O2,max varies by more than
