The R value, calculated as the ratio of VCo2 to VO2, can be high at low exercise intensities (e.g., 100 Watts) due to the relatively larger contribution of resting metabolic rate to total oxygen consumption and CO2 production.

“the R value is heavily skewed towards oxygen consumption and less carbon dioxide production you would even when you do did when you do this you would even say that that this doesn't qualify for a V2 Maxes so the V2 so the V2 numbers now are equally high or higher but the carbon dioxide production is actually now just maybe a little bit higher than one in ourr value and normally we would say that if you if you just went went by the papers or old school books you would say that okay in order for qualify of you to ma that you should for example one of the criteria is often they saying that you need to exceed an R value of 1.1 for example for it to be valid”
