This study compared two metabolic carts, the Vmax and Innocor, during rest and exercise. The study found no significant differences between the carts at lower workloads but a deviation at higher workloads of 200 Watts or more, likely due to differences in gas analysis techniques. Both carts can measure metabolic measurements like VO2 and VCO2 but the Vmax has limitations of cost, mobility, and skill required compared to the Innocor.
