Ep.58 - The secret to lowering all-cause mortality by 70%

What is VO2 max, and why should you care about it? The short answer: yes. VO2 max measures the maximum amount of oxygen your blood can carry and deliver to your body under stress.

And the best way to maximize your VO2 max? Developing and retaining muscle mass.
