Calcolatore Fitness Test di Cooper — Formula
## The Cooper 12-Minute Run Test
Developed by Dr. Kenneth Cooper in 1968, this test estimates VO2max from the distance covered during a 12-minute all-out run.
### Cooper Equation
**VO2max = (Distance in meters - 504.9) / 44.73**
The test is simple and requires only a measured track and a stopwatch. It correlates at r = 0.90 with laboratory treadmill VO2max testing.

Esempio Risolto
A runner covers 2,400 meters in 12 minutes.
- VO2max = (2,400 - 504.9) / 44.73
- = 1,895.1 / 44.73
- = 42.4 mL/kg/min
- Distance in miles = 2,400 / 1,609.34 = 1.49 miles
- Average pace = 12 / 2.4 = 5.0 min/km
