Due to the nature of micro-electromechanical systems, the vector magnitude (VM) activity of accelerometers varies depending on the wearing position and does not identify different levels of physical fitness. Without an appropriate energy expenditure (EE) estimation equation, bias can occur in the estimated values. We aimed to amend the EE estimation equation using heart rate reserve (HRR) parameters as the correction factor, which could be applied to athletes and non-athletes who primarily use ankle-mounted devices. Indirect …
