A Comparison of Energy Expenditure Estimation of Several Physical Activity Monitors

Introduction Accurately and precisely estimating free-living energy expenditure (EE) is important for monitoring energy balance and quantifying physical activity. Recently, single and multisensor devices have been developed that can classify physical activities, potentially resulting in improved estimates of EE. Purpose This study aimed to determine the validity of EE estimation of a footwear-based physical activity monitor and to compare this...
