Physical activity (PA) is a behavior that involves bodily movements resulting in energy
expenditure. When assessing PA, the goal is to identify the frequency, duration, intensity …

BACKGROUND: Physical activity may be defined broadly as" all bodily actions produced by
the contraction of skeletal muscle that increase energy expenditure above basal level." …

Advanced Fitness Assessment and Exercise Prescription, Ninth Edition With HKPropel
Online Video, is the definitive resource for conducting physical fitness testing and …

Despite much progress with physical activity assessment, the limitations concerning the
accurate measurement of physical activity are often amplified in young people due to the …

Background: Wrist-worn activity monitors are often used to monitor heart rate (HR) and
energy expenditure (EE) in a variety of settings including more recently in medical …

The aim of this investigation was to develop and test two artificial neural networks (ANN) to
apply to physical activity data collected with a commonly used uniaxial accelerometer. The …

Purpose We introduce two validated single (SH) and dual hormone (DH) mathematical
models that represent an in-silico virtual patient population (VPP) for type 1 diabetes (T1D) …

In this article, we present several important contributions necessary for enabling an artificial
endocrine pancreas (AP) system to better respond to exercise events. First, we show how …

Heart rate (HR), when combined with accelerometry, can dramatically improve estimates of
energy expenditure and sleep. Advancements in technology, via the development and …

Over the years, techniques for the study of human movement have ranged in complexity and
precision from direct observation of the subject through activity diaries, questionnaires, and …
