Metabolic equivalent of task (METs) thresholds as an indicator of physical activity intensity.
The purpose of the study was to identify and compare validity parameters of different absolute intensity thresholds in METs, using relative intensity classification as criterion measure. Convenience sampling was used to recruit total of 112 adults. The participants carried out an incremental maximal...
