Direct linkGerrard-Longworth, Simon; Preece, Stephen J.; Clarke-Cornwell, Alexandra M.; Goulermas, Yannis – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2020
Previous activity classification studies have typically been performed on normal weight individuals. Therefore, it is unclear whether a generic classification algorithm could be developed that would perform consistently across individuals who fall within different BMI categories. Acceleration data were collected from the hip and ankle joints of 50…

Mason, Jalyn; Morris, Christopher; Long, Douglas E.; Sanden, Madison N.; Flack, Kyle – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2020
Accurate body composition assessment, which includes fat mass (adipose tissue mass, FM), fat-free mass (FFM), and percent fat mass (%FM) is needed to evaluate health and treatment efficacy. The current study compared body composition estimates obtained from the Norland Elite® DXA, BodPod®, and iDXA® before and after a 12-week exercise intervention…

Mahar, Matthew T.; Welk, Gregory J.; Rowe, David A. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2018
Purpose: To develop models to estimate aerobic fitness (VO[subscript 2]max) from PACER performance in 10- to 18-year-old youth, with and without body mass index (BMI) as a predictor. Method: Youth (N = 280) completed the PACER and a maximal treadmill test to assess VO[subscript 2]max. Validation and cross-validation groups were randomly formed to…

Morris, Cody E.; Owens, Scott G.; Waddell, Dwight E.; Bass, Martha A.; Bentley, John P.; Loftin, Mark – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2014
An equation published by Loftin, Waddell, Robinson, and Owens (2010) was cross-validated using ten normal-weight walkers, ten overweight walkers, and ten distance runners. Energy expenditure was measured at preferred walking (normal-weight walker and overweight walkers) or running pace (distance runners) for 5 min and corrected to a mile. Energy…
