Hm ok well I guess it is a MAP test (AT test) which they do give you a supposed VO2 Max but they dont' push you being AT for liability reasons so can't really get a true VO2?
It was at lifetime fitness.

Basically, they put me on an indoor recumbent, and hooked me up to a computer with lots of electroids. It wasn't cheap, somewhere around $100, maybe more, plus I had to purchase the$30 mask (which I kept).
Yeah I think the bike was the problem. My wife did hers on a spin bike without a problem so I'm not sure what the deal is. I may give a call and see if they can do it on a recumbent non spin based on your having done it before.
