Work based on the research of Nancy Butte, Kathleen Watson, and collaborators.

It was developed to estimate the energy costs of physical activities, focusing exclusively on pediatric data and addressing the dependence of the age factor in MET values.

1. What was the compendium developed for?

The Compendium serves as a valuable tool for researchers and professionals interested in evaluating interventions, programs, and policies that promote physical activity in children and adolescents.

  • Estimate the energy cost of various physical activities.
  • Evaluate adherence to physical activity guidelines.
  • Provide data for clinical and public research on energy expenditure and physical activity in children.
  • Specific data for youth: Unlike previous compendiums that used adult data, this compendium is based solely on pediatric measurements.
  • Development of missing values: A mixed model was developed to determine missing MET values, improving the integrity and usability of the dataset.
  • Age group classification: Provides specific MET values for different age groups, allowing for a more accurate assessment of energy expenditure.
  • Individual variability: MET values are averages and do not reflect individual variability due to factors such as body composition, fitness level, and environmental conditions.
  • General estimates: Values are more accurate at the group level than at the individual level. For individual estimates, additional factors not captured by the presented averages should be considered.
  • Activities with multiple intensities: Some activities can be performed at different intensities, introducing additional variability in estimated energy costs.

The compendium corrects usage by presenting MET values adapted to specific age groups.

This is achieved through an estimation model that considers differences in energy expenditure according to age.

For example, it has been observed that MET values for sedentary and low-intensity activities do not vary significantly with age, while for moderate to vigorous activities, the values increase with age.

This approach allows for a better understanding of the energy cost associated with different levels of physical activity as young individuals grow.

You should consider some anthropometric characteristics.

To facilitate the calculation and application of energy expenditure for physical activities, you need to know the category and the corresponding activity number.
