Measurement of Energy Expenditure While Playing Exergames at a Self-selected Intensity.
Exergames have been suggested as a possible alternative to traditional exercise in the general population. The purpose of this study was to examine the heart rate (HR) and energy expenditure (EE) of young adults playing several different exergames, while self-selecting the component of the game to play and the intensity. A total of 117 participants, 18-35 years of age, were evaluated on one of ...
متن کاملIs Playing Exergames Really Exercising? A Meta-Analysis of Energy Expenditure in Active Video Games
This article reports a meta-analysis of energy expenditure (EE) of playing active video games (AVGs). In particular, heart rate (HR), oxygen consumption (VO2), and EE were assessed and three moderators for the effects of AVGs--types of AVG, player age, and player weight status--were analyzed. The results show that playing AVGs significantly increased HR, VO2, and EE from resting. The effect siz...
متن کاملMeasurement of energy expenditure.
Measurement of energy expenditure in humans is required to assess metabolic needs, fuel utilisation, and the relative thermic effect of different food, drink, drug and emotional components. Indirect and direct calorimetric and non-calorimetric methods for measuring energy expenditure are reviewed, and their relative value for measurement in the laboratory and field settings is assessed. Where h...
متن کاملExercise intensity and energy expenditure of a tabata workout.
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) programs have become increasingly popular in recent years. “Tabata training,” a term that is often used synonymously with HIIT, was first described by the Japanese scientist Izumi Tabata in 1996. Tabata and his colleagues (1996) conducted a study that compared moderate-intensity continuous training at 70% of maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) for 60 minu...
