Misconceptions about Aerobic and Anaerobic Energy Expenditure
2005
Scott Christopher
<p>Abstract</p> <p>The measurement of gas exchange has played an invaluable role in metabolic interpretation. The uptake of 1 liter of oxygen is often converted into an energy expenditure estimate of 21.1 kilojoules (e.g., 1 L O<sub>2 </sub>= 21.1 kJ or ~5 kcal). This article demonstrates both the importance of such a conversion and the potential for misinterpretation. Oxygen uptake during heavy and severe exercise will also be discussed.</p>
