Explanation / Answer

1)vo2 max  

It is the maximum amount of oxygen an individual can utilize during maximum exercise it is measured in millilitres of oxygen used in 1 minute per kilogram of body weight.

The oxygen uptake is measured by step test is less than treadmill test.

The difference is due to the fact that step test the muscle use is less than tread mill the use muscle is more in treadmill so heart rate is more so intake of oxygen is more .work done is more so here work done is maximum and oxygen intake will be more

Treadmill use is more accurate according to me.

As treadmill shows maximum oxygen intake capacity of an individual . But it is contraindicated in chronic heart disease,muscle disease.
