Table 11-1 Summary of Metabolic calcualtions

Walking:
Vo2 = (0.1x Speed)x(1.8x Speed x Grade)+ 3.5

Treadmill and Outdoor running
Vo2 = (0.2x Speed)x(0.9x Speed x Grade) =3.5

Leg Ergometry
Vo2 =(10.8x Watts x {M} Body Mass in Kg`1) +7

Arm Egometry
Vo2= (18x Watts x Body {M}ass Kg`1)+ 35

Vo2 = (0.2 x Frequency)x(1.33x 1.8 x Height x frequency) +3.5
