VO2 Max is the latest fitness metric getting runners all worked up. It’s the measure of your body’s ability to burn aerobic energy, so in theory, it should help you run faster while expending less effort. But how accurate are VO2 Max estimates on fitness trackers like the Apple Watch, Garmin, Polar and Suunto? We recently asked Dave to test the accuracy of these devices and compare them with a specialized lab VO2 Max score.

While the best vo2 max watch is only as good as its heart rate tracking, some trackers come pretty close to a lab score. In order to calculate a VO2 Max estimate, a fitness tracker needs a few different stats like your age and gender, GPS activity for speed and distance and heart rate data. The more of these stats you can provide to the tracker, the better the VO2 Max estimate will be.

To get the most accurate VO2 Max estimate, you should always use a chest strap heart rate monitor when exercising instead of the wrist-based sensor. This will give you up to a 2% improvement in the accuracy of your VO2 Max estimate.

The best vo2 max watch on the market is the Garmin Forerunner 45. It provides a VO2 max estimate that’s based on several of your personal stats and the data collected by the GPS and heart rate sensors on your Forerunner. In addition to VO2 max level tracking, this model also has great battery life and offers sleep, stress and hydration monitoring as well as a whole host of other advanced sports and health metrics.

Many people look at a menage surface and just see a finished arena or paddock, but there is a lot more to the construction of these surfaces than meets the eye. Choosing the right materials and knowing what they do, or don’t do, can have a significant impact on how your horse performs and what injuries you may experience.

Menage surfaces offer a soft and supportive surface that absorbs shock to help reduce the strain of jumping or schooling a horse. This helps prevent both injury to the hoof and the rider. A hard or compacted surface doesn’t provide the cushioning required and may cause stress to the hoof. This stress can be inflicted during the landing phase when the hoof hits the ground, the flexor tendons and ligaments load with weight and create shock waves that are distributed through the footing, legs and limbs.

Choosing the Right Surface for Your Menage: Key Considerations

An ideal menage surface distributes the shock and offers a good amount of resistance under the hoof during this loading phase and also provides the springy, active nature that allows the horse to effortlessly move into the rollover or push-off phase. A surface that is too soft or uneven will shift during this process and force the horse to use more energy to jump or work the animal, which can lead to tendons and ligament damage.

Some surfaces require more maintenance than others depending on the type and conditions of the footing material. For example, sand-based footing will need to be regularly groomed with a drag harrow to ensure that the base (the third level of the footing) is not disturbed and compacted. This can be a time consuming job and is something that you may wish to consider hiring a third party to do if your arena is large.
