Fig. 1 Actual measured peak V̇O2, peak V̇O2 estimated from FAI computations, V̇O2 requirement for upper ADL intensities, and V̇O2 at the FAI threshold (.73 × expected peak V̇O2). Actual peak V̇O2 was significantly lower than the FAI threshold (* p <.05) and the expected peak V̇O2 (** p <.01). Actual peak V̇O2 was only slightly, but significantly, higher than the upper ADL V̇O2 requirement (p <.05).
