- Absolute VO2 L/min = absolute VO2 mL/min / 1000
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
- 1 L absolute VO2 = 5 kcal
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
- Kcal/min = absolute VO2 x 5
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
