The intensity and duration of exercise determines which energy system is in use
True
False
VO2max is measured in ml/kg/min
True
False
Which is the right Karvonen formula to determine exercise intensity?
Target HR = (MHR – HR Submax) * Intensity + Resting HR
Target HR = (HR Submax – Resting HR)* Intensity + Resting HR
Target HR = (MHR – Resting HR) * Intensity + Resting HR
Target HR = (MHR – Resting HR)* Intensity + HR Submax
