Chapter 32, Problem 40A

Summary Introduction

To write:

To find the percentage of $VO{}_{Peak}$ of lactate threshold.

Introduction:

Lactate threshold is characterized as the intensity of an activity at which lactate starts to collect in the blood at a quicker rate than it is to be removed.

Explanation of Solution

  $VO{}_{Peak}$ is the quantity of oxygen an individual consume during heavy exercises. It eventually burns up more fat.

According to the given graph, the percentage of $VO{}_{Peak}$ was $VO{}_{Peak}$ when the lactate threshold reached in the case of Overweights.

Conclusion

In sports where endurance is a significant segment in performance, for example, cycling, paddling, crosscountry skiing, swimming and running, elite competitors commonly have high VO2 max esteems.
