Summary

The goal of this study is to characterize associations between cardiorespiratory fitness, as measured by VO₂max/VO₂peak, and blood-based molecular measurements in adults. This is an observational study where research staff measures VO₂max/VO₂peak and collects fasted, resting blood samples on the same day. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can a multi-analyte blood panel accurately predict directly measured VO₂max/VO₂peak? 2. How do these blood-based features vary across age, sex, and self-reported or documented physical activity profiles? 3. Are the predictor analytes able to capture changes in VO₂max/VO₂peak caused by a self-directed intervention (e.g., training for a marathon)? 4. What is the analytic reliability of the predictor biomarkers?

Interventions

OTHERThere is no intervention.

The investigators are not administering an intervention for this study. To opportunistically capture prospective data, the investigators give participants the option for re-testing after a period of time where participants are undergoing a self-directed intervention (i.e., no influence of the research staff), such as training for a marathon or other fitness event.
