20150088006 | METHOD FOR DETERMINING AEROBIC CAPACITY - A method of estimating the maximal oxygen uptake of an individual on the basis of heart rate data, biometric data, biomechanical data, and geophysical data is described. These data can be collected as the individual engages in activities requiring various levels of exertion, without modifying those activities from the ordinary manner in which they are performed. In particular, in some embodiments the method described here obviates the conventional need for a laboratory setting when estimating maximal oxygen uptake and the method can be applied to estimate maximal oxygen uptake under more natural conditions than conventional testing protocols requiring treadmills or stationary ergometers typically permit. Furthermore, it is described how such estimates of maximal oxygen uptake can be used to estimate other quantities of interest, including fat and carbohydrate metabolism, lactate production, and water and electrolyte loss during exercise. | 03-26-2015 |

20150087929 | Method and System for Population Level Determination of Maximal Aerobic Capacity - A computerized method for determining maximal oxygen uptake for a user with incomplete data with data collected from a plurality of other users with complete data. The maximal oxygen uptake can be determined by computing similarity metrics between an incomplete data set of self-reported and measured data and complete user data sets, and using a weighted sum of the similarity metrics. The results of the maximal oxygen update calculation can be cross-validated with known user data sets. | 03-26-2015 |
