VO2 max is an intimidating word for an easy-to-understand biometric: It’s how well your body uses oxygen when you push yourself. Short for “maximal oxygen uptake,” it’s been the gold standard for assessing cardiorespiratory fitness since the 1950s. Until recently, it’s mostly lived in research labs and elite training centers, helping coaches squeeze every last drop of performance out of elite skiers, runners, and cyclists. Today, VO2 max has escaped the lab and gone mainstream, landing on fitness trackers, longevity podcasts, and wellness clinics that promise to put a number on how fit you are.I tested mine last year at…

They come in nine colors, but the colors are clownishly bright (blue pictured above), and the four-paneled mesh design reminds me of a jock strap. Shacke says it uses YKK zippers on all its packing cubes, but I peeled back the covering on the zipper and…
