VO2 Max Examination (Seismofit)

A resting estimate of VO2 max — the gold-standard marker of cardiorespiratory fitness — measured on the Danish Seismofit device. Unlike a traditional spiroergometry test, there is no treadmill, no breathing mask and no maximal effort: Seismofit combines a precise heart-rate and seismocardiography sensor with AI to estimate VO2 max while you lie still for a few minutes. At Klinika Best of Me the result is translated into your optimal fat-burning and training-intensity zones, with a doctor's explanation and an improvement plan from the team — making a metric that strongly predicts long-term health accessible without a sports lab.

VO2 max — the maximum rate at which your body can use oxygen during exercise — is one of the strongest single predictors of cardiorespiratory fitness and long-term health, but the classical way to measure it is demanding: a maximal treadmill or bike test wearing a breathing mask (spiroergometry). The Seismofit examination at Klinika Best of Me takes a different route. You lie down at rest and a sensor records seismocardiography — the tiny mechanical vibrations of the heartbeat through the chest wall — together with precise heart-rate data, and an AI model derives an estimated VO2 max from that resting signal. The measurement itself takes only a few minutes, needs no special fitness, no maximal exertion and no mask, which makes it suitable for people who could not safely or comfortably complete a maximal stress test. The appointment covers the measurement and, importantly, its interpretation. Your VO2 max result is placed in context for your age and goals, and the clinic identifies your optimal training-intensity zones — including the heart-rate band where fat-burning is most efficient and the zones that best build aerobic capacity — so the number becomes an actionable training guide rather than a one-off score. A clinician explains the result and the multidisciplinary team builds an improvement plan around it. The test is well suited to athletes and fitness optimisers wanting precise zones, to longevity-focused clients tracking cardiovascular fitness as it changes, and to anyone starting a structured exercise plan who wants a safe, repeatable baseline. Because it is non-invasive and effort-free, it can be repeated periodically to confirm that training is improving aerobic fitness. As a resting, AI-derived estimate it is intended for fitness guidance and trend-tracking rather than as a diagnostic cardiac test; anyone with a known heart condition or cardiac symptoms should raise this when booking so the clinic can advise on appropriate medical assessment.
