MCAFT Step Test (Modified Canadian Aerobic Fitness Test) 

Not Affiliated with CSEP - PATH
This video demonstrates how to do the MCAFT Step test. It is a submaximal exercise test designed to estimate the VO2max for clients aged 15-69 years old. It uses 3 minute-long consecutive workloads designed to raise the heart rate to 85% of the client's maximum heart rate.
Remember to incorporate an appropriate warm-up
Review the CSEP Aerobic Fitness Test Termination Criteria before testing
Always complete the test with an active and passive recovery procedure
These CSEP guidelines are under constant revision - If you notice any mistakes or out-of-date information, please let me know in the comments so I can update the video accordingly.
