a little more on vital capacity -- Rest

Today's training: Rest

a little more on vital capacity. Once again, if you can make your way through it, Willem Minten's document on the t6 answers all. It says, "To calculate ventilation, the model estimates first the volume of one breath from the intensity of the activity and the person's vital capacity and then multiplies this with respiratory rate." Perhaps the role of the vital capacity parameter is a little more than simply scaling the breaths per minute.
