Making Sense of Oxygen Consumption Terminology

This video shows Dr. Evan Matthews explaining the difference between common oxygen consumption (VO2) terminology. The key terms discussed here are absolute VO2, relative VO2, VO2peak, VO2max, measured VO2max, and estimated VO2max. This video is part of a series of videos that will cover exercise metabolism. The playlist to that series is listed below.
