FC Bayern Munich pre-season assessment with COSMED Quark CPET
Before the official start of training at Säbener Straße, Mathys Tel, Sacha Boey, Leon Goretzka, Serge Gnabry and Co. underwent various performance tests to analyse their physiological profiles, with a specific focus on Cardiorespiratory fitness status.
Football players' VO2 Max varies according to playing position. For outfield players, midfielders have significantly greater aerobic power values whilst central defenders have the lowest values. The game is usually played at an average intensity close to the lactate threshold - approximately 80-90% of maximum heart rate. The greater a player's aerobic capacity (VO2max), the more ground they cover during a typical game and the number of sprints completed in a game also increases.
Cardiopulmonary Exercise Tests were performed using the COSMED Quark CPET and h/p/cosmos treadmill to provide accurate information and assess the complete picture of player abilities. Now players are ready to face next challenges under the guidance of new head coach Vincent Kompany. Good luck!
