Consideraciones sobre el trabajo, la potencia y el gasto energético durante el ejercicio físico
Main Article Content
Abstract
The main objective of this work is to guide researchers and sports professionals interested in estimating work, power and energy expenditure during physical exercise, using step benches, treadmills and cycle ergometers. The importance of adequate planning and control of training loads is emphasized, as well as the need to have adequate equipment and precise measurements to perform stress tests. Examples of estimating the O2 requirement when walking, running on a treadmill, and using bicycles are provided. It analyses how to calculate energy efficiency during exercise and the factors that determine it, offering examples of how to do it.
