A Self-Paced Walk Test for Individual Calibration of Heart Rate to Energy Expenditure

Kate Westgate, Tomas I. Gonzales, Stefanie Hollidge, Tim Lindsay, Nick Wareham, and Søren Brage

standardized treadmill test and nonexercise calibration. We also compare estimates of cardiorespiratory fitness from the two exercise calibration methods. Our study offers insights into the potential of a self-paced walk test as a practical and inclusive alternative to established individual calibration
