[6] [7] By convention, 1 MET is considered equivalent to the consumption of 3.5 ml O 2 ·kg −1 ·min −1 (or 3.5 ml of oxygen per kilogram of body mass per minute) and is roughly equivalent to the expenditure of 1 kcal per kilogram of body weight per hour. This value was first experimentally derived from the resting oxygen consumption of a ...
