Estimating the metabolic rate and associated physiological response for Indian subjects through climate chamber experiments

This paper estimates metabolic rate and physiological response associated with different activity intensities through controlled climate chamber experiments. We investigate the effect of activity intensity, personal and environmental factors on the subjects' heart rate, oxygen consumption, energy expenditure, and metabolic rate (Mr). Forty-eight adult Indian subjects categorized based on age, gender, Body Mass Index (BMI), ethnicity and dietary...
