Frequently Asked Questions

SEO‑oriented explanations

How do hemoglobin and RBC affect VO₂ Max?

They determine blood oxygen carrying capacity. Higher hemoglobin and total red cell mass can raise the ceiling for aerobic performance.

What is a typical hemoglobin level?

Around 15 g/dL for many adults; hydration, sex, altitude, and lab methods influence results.

Can training raise hemoglobin?

Endurance training, especially at altitude, can increase total hemoglobin mass over time.

Do supplements help?

Only if a deficiency exists. Iron and B12 should be targeted based on testing and clinical advice.

Why does hydration change readings?

Plasma volume shifts dilute or concentrate blood, altering measured g/dL without changing red cell mass.

Is this calculator medical advice?

No—estimates are educational and should not replace clinical assessment or treatment.

How accurate is the adjustment?

It uses a simplified model emphasizing hemoglobin with a minor RBC contribution; individual physiology varies.

What else limits VO₂ Max?

Cardiac output, muscle oxidative capacity, and biomechanics are major determinants alongside hematology.
