What is the difference between Relative VO 2max (ml/kg/min) and absolute VO 2max (L/min).
Relative VO 2max (ml/kg/min) is important to report (1) if you want to make meaningful comparisons between individuals with different body weights or (2) for activities that require movement against gravity (e.g., running), whereas absolute VO 2max (L/min) may be more important to report for gravity-independent activities (e.g., cycling, swimming).
