If the ratio between the vco2 the CO2 production and the oxygen consumption is one you oxidize carbohydrate if it's 7 you oxidize fat

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
so the tech is looking at a bunch of data so what they're looking for is V2 and vco2 those are the things that are being measured so they're they know your heart rate at every moment in time they know how many watts you're pet you're generating because they're you're they're you're generating by definition everything they're sending you and then they're measuring V2 so ventilation rate of oxygen and vco2 ventilation rate of CO2 they also at every moment in time see the ratio of vco2 to V2 that's called respiratory quotient or RQ it's also known as r r that ratio in any moment in time tells you how much fat you're oxidizing versus how much glucose
