Title Energy expenditure of slackline walking Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the energy expenditure of slacklining in intermediate and advanced slackliners. Methods In this observatory study, 19 slackliners (10 intermediate, of which 7 men and 3 women, 9 advanced, of which 7 men and 2 women) completed experimental energy expenditure measurement of slacklining using indirect colorimetry. The MetaMax 3B metabolic analyzer (Cortex Biophysik, Germany) was used to determine respiratory parameters and the heart rate monitor (Polar Electro OY, Finland) was used to determine the heart rate (HR). Comparative statistical tools were used in the data analysis. Results Relative energy expenditure of 0,471 kJ·min-1 ·kg-1 was found in intermediate slackliners and 0,377 kJ·min-1 ·kg-1 in advanced slackliners in walking on a 10 m long slackline at a constant speed of 15 m·min-1 . In the static standing on slackline, the relative energy expenditure was found to be 0.368 kJ·min-1 ·kg-1 in intermediate slackliners and 0.289 kJ·min-1 ·kg-1 in advanced slackliners. The weighted arithmetic mean for HR in men and women walking on the slackline at 15 m·min-1 was at 67.3% of the predicted HRmax (220 - age for men, 226 - age for women). The MET value in the advanced group (n = 10) was set at 5.15, and in...
