Activity Level
Activity level is an assessment of your level of long-term physical activity. Select the alternative that best
describes the overall amount and intensity of your physical activity during the past three months.
• Top: You participate in heavy physical exercise at least 5 times a week, or you exercise to improve
performance for competitive purposes.
• High: You participate at least 3 times a week in heavy physical exercise, e.g. you run 10-40 km/6-25
miles per week or spend 2-4 hours per week in comparable physical activity.
• Moderate: You participate regularly in recreational sports, e.g. you run 5-10 km or 3-6 miles per week or
spend 1/2-2 hours per week in comparable physical activity, or your work requires modest physical
activity.
• Low: You do not participate regularly in programmed recreational sport or heavy physical activity, e.g. you
walk only for pleasure or exercise hard enough to cause heavy breathing or perspiration only occasionally.

value (220 - age) is used as a default. Set your
HR

manually if your maximum heart rate has been determined in a lab, or if you have tested your
maximum heart rate in the field yourself.

Maximal Oxygen Intake: VO
2max
VO
2max
is your body’s maximum capacity for oxygen consumption during maximum exertion. The most
accurate way of determining VO
