at rest you need 250ml/min at rest of o2 and 200ml/min of co2 to be removed.
peak transfer: whats the best thing you have available to you
whats the max
transfer of 02/min: short distance runner
●
●
sustained o2 transfer: whats the best that you can maintain: marathon runners
how fast can you put in a big effort
recover and put in another good effort:
rugby- o2 transfer could be a mixture of all ^ and recovery times
Vo2 Max:
●
do the athletes actually compete at thier Vo2 max? Sprint cyclists dont
compete at Vo2 max
●
●
max can only be sustained for a few seconds
sustained power and recovery is more useful for athletes- sustained
consumption is the max power that can be sustained for long periods of time
Vo2 max doesnt tell you about pace
