Validity of energy expenditure estimation methods during 10 days of military training

Abstract: Wearable physical activity (PA) monitors have improved the ability to estimate free-living total energy expenditure (TEE) but their application during arduous military training alongside more well-established research methods has not been widely documented.This study aimed to assess the validity of two wrist-worn activity monitors and a PA log against doubly labeled water (DLW) during British Army Officer Cadet (OC) training. For 10 days of training, twenty (10 male and 10 female) OCs (mean ± SD: age 23 ± 2 ye… Show more

“…Therefore, based on the current available evidence, we recommend that the criterion measure for the validation of specific activities or exercise protocols be indirect calorimetry, with DLW used for free-living studies. All five studies in the systematic literature review validating consumer wearables in a free-living context utilised the DLW method [10,[36][37][38][39], while 3 (10%) of the 28 semi-free-living protocols utilised a metabolic chamber [10,37,40]. The remaining studies with a semi-free-living protocol ( 25) and all 52 laboratory protocols selected indirect calorimetry in the form of a portable system or metabolic cart.…”

“…The context of basic military training is germane for developing EA measurement, since it is characterized with high physical demands and multiple stressors, in free-living but well circumscribed field environment. It is repeatable (12) and provides routine measures of training adaptation (1). Furthermore, since a ban on women joining the infantry has recently been lifted, women may be required to train more arduously which could put them at increased risk of conditions associated with low EA, like premature osteoporosis, increased cardiovascular risk or reproductive dysfunction (1,13,14).…”

“…Because false alarms would reduce user alertness and prevent user adherence from the feedback provided, efficient mechanisms are needed to detect and diagnose deviations occurring in captured data [126]. (5) Other issues such as cost, low data collection and processing efficiency, unstable human-computer interaction interfaces, and incomplete construction of big data health clouds need to be further improved [9,13,122].…”

“…Since then, wearable technology has received considerable attention from researchers all around the world. In recent years, with the development of the internet, intelligent hardware, and big data, wearable technology has developed rapidly in various fields such as health care [2], education and culture [3], social networking [4], and the military [5]. Some of these technologies are becoming part of people's daily life in the form of accessories such as smart watches, smart bracelets, armbands, and glasses [6].…”
