Practical Applications of the ACSM Metabolic Calculations
Practical Applications of the ACSM Metabolic Calculations provides a comprehensive review of ACSM’s recommended procedures for estimating energy expenditure during exercise. The DVD also presents a simplified approach for making selected metabolic calculations. In addition, the DVD offers several useful examples of exercise professionals concerning how the ACSM metabolic calculations may be utilized. Among the topics covered: standard nomenclature and definitions in the calculation of energy expenditure (definitions of weight, energy, force, speed, velocity, work, power, etc.), selected conversion factors, conversions and useful relationships (only those important to the exercise programmer), a simplified approach to walking, running, leg cycling, arm cycling, and step calculations, algebra made easy (yes, there is an easy, step-by-step approach), and useful examples for the exercise professional (many of which relate directly to caloric expenditure).
