1
Energy Expenditure during various Activities
2
Oxygen Uptake Energy utilized for O 2 consumed: z5 kcal/L of O 2 zIf a person burns 600 calories during a run, how many liters of O 2 did he/she consume?
3
Energy Expenditure Gross Energy Expenditure Net Energy Expenditure zexpenditure due to activity zsubtract resting energy expenditure
4
Energy Expenditure A runner burns 600 calories during a 45 minute run: z6’0” z190 lbs. zAge: 37 zFind Net Energy Expenditure
5
Energy Expenditure Runner zEstimate Body Surface Area (nomogram - Figure 9.4) zEstimate BMR (Figure 9.3) zCalculate Resting Energy Expenditure (kcal/hour)
6
Energy Expenditure Net Energy Expenditure = Gross Energy Expenditure – BMR
7
Energy Expenditure/O 2 Consumption Constant load / light to moderate exercise zAssessed 1-2x during steady state Exercise w/ varying loads zAssessed multiple times
8
Mechanical Efficiency (%) z= Mechanical work accomplished / Input of energy * 100 zMechanical work = ergometer zEnergy input = O 2 consumption zWork equivalent: 1 kcal = 426 kg-m perfect)
9
Mechanical Efficiency (%) zHuman locomotion = 20-30% zDissipated energy to internal & external friction
10
Walking Efficiency zSand 2x energy expenditure zSoft-soled running shoe O 2 consumption x 2.4% z100g (3.52 oz.) to each shoe O 2 consumption x 1%
11
Effects of Downhill Walking 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 -18-15-13-9-6-30 % Grade Net Oxygen Consumption (mL/kg-min)
12
Walking vs. Running
13
Running Economy zEnergy cost not dependent on velocity zHorizontal running net energy expenditure = 1kcal/kg-km (1km = 0.62 miles) zA 220 lb. man runs 10 km, what is the net energy expenditure?
14
Running: Frequency vs. Stride Length Speed (km/h) 10 30 Stride Frequency and Stride Length (cm) Frequency Length 20 90
15
Walking: Frequency vs. Stride Length 120 220 Speed (km/h) 1016 Stride Frequency and Stride Length (cm) Frequency Length
16
Stride Length Stride Length (cm) 118 134 154 Oxygen Uptake (L/min) 3.3 3.5 3.7 3.9
17
Air Resistance Effect dependent on: zair density zsurface area zvelocity 2 z9.86 vs. 41 mph wind z2.92 vs. 4.1 L/min (41%)
18
Drafting zRunning @ 6 m/s z1 m behind z energy expenditure by 7% zCycling @ 25 mph z energy expenditure by 26-38%
19
Treadmill vs. Non-Tmill Running zNo differences aerobically (submax and max)
