Table 1 Example of playground games ranked by oxygen consumption and energy expenditure with accelerometer counts and heart rate data also displayed for the HEPAFIT study

From: Effects of an exercise program on hepatic metabolism, hepatic fat, and cardiovascular health in overweight/obese adolescents from Bogotá, Colombia (the HEPAFIT study): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

  1. EE energy expenditure, HIPE high-intensity physical education, LIPE low-to-moderate intensity physical education
  2. The data for each game is an average for 5 ± 1 subjects (with standard error). Games with VO2 up to 20 mL kg–1 min–1. Games with VO2 between 20 and 30 mL kg–1 min–1. Games with VO2 above 30 mL kg–1 min–1. A full description for the preparation and administration of these games can be found at www.movidavida.org. Table taken from Cañete-García et al. [34]
