Abstract



Purpose: The aim of this study was to survey the agreements between the energy expenditure prediction equations with
the criterion model in the exhaustive treadmill test protocols in active young men. Methods:Fifty active young men were
selected as subjects (Mean ± SD Age 21.04 ± 2.069 yrs., Height 176.78 ± 4.484 cm, Weight 70.11 ± 5.825kg) and
completed exhaustive treadmill test protocols. Bioenergetical variables during exhaustive protocols using respiratory gas
analysis were collected at an interval of ten seconds. To estimate the energy cost and bioenergetical variables,ACSMv,
Vander Walt, Pandolf, Léger and Epstein predictive equations for walking and running were considered. Bland-Altman
graphical model and Interclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) statistical tests were used to evaluate the absolute agreement
of the methods. Results:The results suggest that the Leger equation for running have high agreement with the criterion
model (±1.96; CI = 95% -21.2 to 2.4 ml/kg/min; ICC= 0.89)And ACSM walking and running equations have middleagreement
with the criterion model(Walking: ±1.96 ; 95% CI = -8.1to +4.7ml/kg/min,ICC= 0.4837;Running: ±1.96 ; 95%
CI = -27.6 to -3.3 ml/kg/min, ICC: 0.4535). Conclusions: According to study results it could be concluded that the Leger
equations for running and relativelyACSM walking and running equations estimating of VO2 among Iranian active young
men can be used as an accurate alternative for the criterion method.
