Table 4.
The three HR levels from walking commuting used to estimate VO2 based on the HR–VO2 regression equations at test and retest
| Heart rates during walking commuting | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sex | Males (n = 7) | Females (n = 7) | ||||
| HR segments, % | 0–20 | 41–60 | 81–100 | 0–20 | 41–60 | 81–100 |
| Heart rate, beats/minute | 104 ± 17 | 116 ± 21 | 124 ± 20 | 103 ± 8 | 114 ± 9 | 128 ± 10 |
| Percent of heart rate reserve | 27.8 ± 13.1 | 38.8 ± 15.1 | 46.7 ± 14.3 | 34.5 ± 8.3 | 44.3 ± 7.9 | 56.5 ± 11.2 |
| Percent of maximal heart rate | 56.8 ± 9.0 | 63.4 ± 10.2 | 68.0 ± 9.6 | 57.8 ± 3.5 | 64.0 ± 4.3 | 72.0 ± 6.5 |
The corresponding levels of percent of HRmax as well as percent of heart rate reserve are also given (mean ± SD)
