The METS value calculated by the 900Er console represents the user's functional capacity for aerobic exercise. METS, or
metabolic units are calculated with the input of body weight, but not age or gender. For this reason, the value is to be
considered a relative measurement only. The American College of Sports Medicine offers this chart which compares METs to a
person's relative fitness level.
