Not your normal Wednesday afternoon.....
Had a great opportunity to be a test bunny and do a Vo2max test through the use of the CPET testing protocol. Very weird having 6 doctors watch you exercise 😂
CPET (cardiopulmonary exercise test) is designed to find out if patients are healthy enough to undergo major surgery. From this, exercise can be prescribed to ensure a patient is in top form for surgery, post surgery and beyond.
Huge thanks to who helps run the amazing Mefit team over Medway hospital for the chance to give my all! Such an interesting insight to a clinical approach to exercise.
