Explanation / Answer

1. The person will exercize at 60-80% of Max MET level:

The MET range can be found by the equation:

[(Max MET - Rest MET) X %] + 1

where Max MET = VO2 max / 3.5 and Rest MET is equal to 1

Therefore the range will be: [(Max MET - Rest MET) X 0.6] + 1 to [(Max MET - Rest MET) X 0.8] + 1
