Document Summary
Oxygen is passive which is why there is always a lower level (6) We compare these values to our weight to make a fairer comparison (17) 10; 1 step usually lasted 1-5 minutes (used in the past) 12; ramp test data is much less noisier and more accurate than the steppy data. 13; ramp test gives a much better distribution of data compared to the steppy test (steppy test causes the person to get tired abruptly) 14; you take in more oxygen than you eliminate carbon dioxide. Criteria informs us when the subject reaches exhaustion; 15,16. Rer=*vco2/*vo2: *(dot on top of v, some call it rq, average is at the mouth; this is where we measure it. Treadmill uses more leg muscles than a bike causing a higher vo2 max. Submaximal test=you do not have to go to exhaustion; 30. Maximum heart rate does not change; 25. 27; fick"s law of diffusion involves much more complex calculations.
