Power output was highly correlated with VO₂ max in CPET. However, it is unclear regarding the correlations of time and estimated power output (EPO) for a run field test with VO₂ max obtained from CPET in young adults. <b>Methods:</b> This study included 45 participants, aged 20-40 years, from a sample of 1,120 military personnel who completed a 3,000-m run field test in Taiwan in 2020. The participants subsequently received CPET using the Bruce protocol to assess VO₂ max in the same year.
