This handbook provides a step-by-step approach to using metabolic equations, from basic math principles to applying the equations to an exercise plan. Chapters focus separately on each equation, provide an easy-to-follow process of solving, and demonstrate the varied uses of the equation in clinical as well as fitness settings. Each chapter includes a set of problems that focus on real-world applications of the equation. Step-by-step problem solution explanations are provided at the end of each chapter. A comprehensive exam at the end of the book tests the reader's skill in using the equations.The use of the ACSM MetCalcs presupposes that ergometers used are calibrated properly and used appropriately (e.g., ... walking at 2.5 miles/hr on a treadmill), the problem is a forward-solving one with the final answer on the left side of theanbsp;...
