KNR 280 Lecture Notes - Anaerobic Glycolysis, Phosphagen, Citric Acid Cycle
Document Summary
Lab #3 - maximal oxygen uptake (vo2max) test. Name (s): ___________________________: we measured several variables during the cycle ergometry maximal oxygen uptake laboratory. Specifically, the data collection sheet has columns labeled rer, hr, Define maximal aerobic capacity, vo2max, in your own words. Please note that this is different from just vo2 as in the first question. V02max is the maximum amount of oxygen that an individual can utilize during intense or maximal exercise. The aerobic system (aerobic glycolysis + krebs cycle + ets- When vo2 is expressed in relative terms, this would mean that we would look into the person"s weight while considering their vo2, providing us with a more accurate measurement than measuring in absolute terms. This why relative is more accurate than absolute because the results take into consideration the weight of each participant, recognizing the difference of the body sizes and adjusting the results.
