IE 366 Chapter 2 (2.4 – 2.6) Work Physiology, Anthropometry
IE 366 Metabolism ● Definition – Transformation: chemical energy work ● Units of Measurement – kilocalorie (kcal) – 1 kcal = 1000 cal = 1 Cal = heat required to raise 1 liter H 2 O from 15 °C to 16 °C
IE 366 Alternative Units ● Common rate units: kcal/min ● Text rate units: W ● 1 W ≈ kcal/min ● 1 kcal/min ≈ 73 W ● Note: 1 W/kg x 70 kg x ≈ 1kcal/min text typical slides units male units
IE 366 Metabolism (1) carbohydrates fats proteins glucose fatty acids amino acids pyruvic acid acetic acid deaminated AAs glycolysis oxidation deamination digestion
IE 366 Metabolism (2) carbohydrates fats proteins glucose fatty acids amino acids pyruvic acid acetic acid deaminated AAs glycolysis oxidation deamination digestion CO 2 H2OH2O energy
IE 366 Metabolism (3) carbohydrates fats proteins glucose fatty acids amino acids pyruvic acid acetic acid deaminated AAs glycolysis oxidation deamination digestion CO 2 H2OH2O energy adenosine triphosphate adenosine diphosphate + PO 4 creatine + PO 4 creatine phosphate
IE 366 Metabolism - Components Total Metabolism = Basal Metabolism (life support) + Activity Metabolism (work, leisure)
IE 366 Basal Metabolism, Resting Metabolism ● Male ( 70 kg ) – 1700 kcal/day kcal/min ● Female ( 60 kg ) – 1400 kcal/day 1.0 kcal/min ● Factors: – Sex – Size – Age ● Resting metabolism ~10% - 15% higher
IE 366 Metabolism ● Response to Exercise ● Factors Affecting Energy Expenditure ● Measurement
IE 366 Energy Cost of Work (Activity Standards)
IE 366 Grades of Physical Work (Activity Standards)
IE 366 Recommended Limits ● Energy Expenditure (kcal/min, average) 8-hour shift4-hour shift Male< 5.00< 6.25 Female< 3.35< 4.20 ● Heart Rate (beats/min, average) Arm work< 99 Leg work< 112
IE 366 Rest Requirements R = rest time T = total working time K = work metabolic rate S = standard metabolic rate
IE 366 Rest Requirements: Example 1 T = 60 min K = 6 kcal/min S = 4 kcal/min
IE 366 Rest Requirements: Example 2 T = 60 min K = 10 kcal/min S = 4 kcal/min
