The rate of movement, or speed, typically measured in m/min, km/hr, etc.
|
|
VO2 peak
|
The peak rate of oxygen consumption by the body that occurs with no evidence of a VO2 plateau.
|
|
VO2 plateau
|
The decreasing slope of the VO2-time response during incremental exercise. Theoretically, a true plateau exists when the VO2 slope has decreased to 0.
|
|
VO2max
|
The maximal rate of oxygen consumption by the body. This is best determined by detecting a plateau in VO2 despite continued increases in exercise intensity.
