Some stats on me:
My VO2 max measured at 52,6 mL/kg/min on the 23rd of June 2025.
I will be training for about 14 weeks, my next test is planned for the 5th of October. This followup test decides the outcome of this market.
I am doing 2 hours of zone 2 training, and one 4x4 interval training session per week, all done on an elliptical machine
I have been following this protocol for the past 4 weeks without exception, starting from the 30th of June.
I weighed about 93kg at the time of the test, now down to around 90kg, but I dont expect further weight loss.
My Whoop has estimated a rise in VO2 max from 52 to 54 over the past four weeks.
I am 23 and have been going to the gym for 5+ years, but I have not really done any targeted cardio vascular training for long periods of time. According to Whoop statistics, in the year prior to my test, I averaged some sort of logged cardiovascular activity about once every two weeks.
Update 2025-11-01 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Market close date extended to November 8th, 2025 (test now scheduled for that date instead of October 5th)
This provides 4 additional weeks of training beyond the original 14 weeks
Creator was on vacation for 2 of those additional weeks with no training
Whoop estimate has dropped to 54 mL/kg/min as of this update
Update 2025-11-08 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Test result: 51.1 mL/kg/min
Market will resolve based on this measured value.

The close time has been extended a bit, now my test is schedueled for the 8th of November, giving 4 additional weeks of training. That said, I was on vacation for 2 of those weeks with no training, and Whoops estimate have actually dropped to 54 mL/kg/min, so I don’t think this has been an advantage. Altough my weight is now around 88,5kg, which gives a boost in and of itself.
On track with the training program, 6/6 weeks with two Zone 2 hours and a 4×4 workout.
