Endurance Metrics

Meaning

Endurance metrics are quantifiable physiological and performance measurements used to assess an individual’s capacity to sustain prolonged physical or cognitive activity. These metrics provide objective data on the body’s efficiency in energy production, oxygen utilization, and fatigue resistance. Key examples include VO2 max, lactate threshold, heart rate variability, and time to exhaustion. In the context of wellness, these indicators serve as essential biomarkers for cardiovascular health, mitochondrial function, and overall physical longevity.
