Reference values for estimated VO2max by two submaximal cycle tests: the Åstrand-test and the Ekblom-Bak test

ConclusionWe present reference values for estimated VO2max from two submaximal cycle tests. Age, exercise, and BMI influenced estimated VO2max. These references can be valuable  in clinical evaluations using the same submaximal tests.
