- HOLY MOLY! I am exhausted after those 500 meters. How are you even still standing?
- Oh, you mean your maximal oxygen consumption, the representation of the functional capacity of the bodies oxygen transport system. But how is yours so much better if we both do the same workouts? Lets ask Coach Dan.
- Just breath, I didn't think it was that bad. Maybe my VO2 Max is just better than yours.
- Hey Coach! Sally was wondering why my VO2 Max is so much better than hers.
- Interesting.
- Well it is because you are a male. Guys are typically larger than females and have less body fat percentages. This means that the size of your heart will scale to how lean you are, allowing males to have larger hearts that pump more blood.
- Sounds like a plan! Now let's get back to practice, we have had enough of a break by now.
- There you have it. Guess there is not much you can do about our different biological builds.
- Yeah, I also heard that females have lower levels of hemoglobin, so less oxygen is transported through my blood. I will just have to keep training hard so that I can increase my heart size and decrease my body fat to get the best VO2 Max possible.
