  The formulas widely used to calculate fat oxidation (FATox) in grams per minute and carbohydrate oxidation (CHOox) in grams per minute are the following: FATox (g/min) = 1.67 x VO2 (L/min) – 1.67 x VCO2 (L/min) CHOox (g/min) = 4.55 x VCO2 (L/min) – 3.21 x VO2 (L/min) VO2 and VCO2 are placeholders for the…
