Power Conversions
To find power in kgm/min, divide work in kgm / time in minutes
To find power in watts, divide work in joules / time in seconds
kgm/min to watts = multiply kgm/min x 0.164
watts to kgm/min = multiply watts x 6.12
kgm/min to kcal/min = multiply kgm/min x 0.0023
kcal/min to kgm/min = multiply kcal/min x 427
kcal/min to watts = multiply kcal/min x 69.8
watts to kcal/min = multiply watts x 0.014

ACSM Metabolic Equations
Walking(1.9 to 3.7 mph)
VO2 (ml/kg/min) = (0.1 x speed) + (1.8 x speed x grade) + 3.5
Speed is calculated in m/min.
Grade = fraction of the elevation / distance
The numbers 0.1 and 1.8 are constants that refer to the following:
0.1 = oxygen cost per meter of moving each kilogram (kg) of body weight while walking (horizontally) Nightmares from the deep 2 the sirens call.
1.8 = oxygen cost per meter of moving total body mass against gravity (vertically)
Running(greater than 5.0 mph - or 3.0 mph or greater if the subject is jogging)
VO2 = (0.2 x speed) + (0.9 x speed x grade) + 3.5
Speed is calculated in m/min.
Grade = fraction of the elevation / distance
The numbers 0.2 and 0.9 are constants that refer to the following:
0.2 = oxygen cost per meter of moving each kg of body weight while running (horizontally)
0.9 = oxygen cost per meter of moving total body mass against gravity (vertically)
Cycling or Leg Ergometry(for power outputs of 300–1,200 kgm/min, or 50-200 watts, and speeds of 50–60 rpm
VO2 = [1.8 (work rate) ÷ body mass in kg] + 7
*You may need to convert watts to kgm/min (1 watt = 6 kgm/min).
The numbers 1.8 and 7 are constants that refer to the following:
1.8 = oxygen cost of producing 1 kgm/min of power output
7 = oxygen cost of unloaded cycling plus resting oxygen consumption
Stepping(for stepping rates of 12–30 steps/min and for step heights ranging from 1.6 to 15.7 inches)
VO2 = [0.2 (step rate)] + [1.33 x 1.8 (height in meters x step rate)] + 3.5
Since the height that needs to be plugged into the equation is in meters, you must convert inches to meters (1 inch = 0.0254 meters).
The numbers 0.2, 1.8 and 1.33 are constants that refer to the following:
0.2 = oxygen cost of moving horizontally during stepping
1.8 = oxygen cost of moving vertically during stepping
1.33 = correction factor for positive and negative (up and down) component of stepping

Learn more about ordering Rx ProductsMetacam is a prescription non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used to control pain and inflammation (soreness) due to osteoarthritis in dogs. Osteoarthritis (OA) is a painful condition caused by “wear and tear” of cartilage and other parts of the joints that may result in the following changes or signs in your dog: Limping or lameness, decreased activity or exercise (reluctance to stand, climb stairs, jump or run, or difficulty in performing these activities), stiffness or decreased movement of joints. Metacam is given to dogs by mouth. Do not use Metacam Oral Suspension in cats.
Shake well before use, then remove cap. Particular care should be given with regard to the accuracy of dosing. To prevent accidental overdosing of small dogs, administer drops on food only, never directly into the mouth. Carefully measure suspension onto food to assure that the correct dose is given before presentation of the food to the dog.
Metacam Oral Suspension can be given using the measuring syringe provided in the package (see dosing procedure below). The syringe fits on to the bottle and has a scale in pounds designed to deliver the daily maintenance dose (0.05 mg/lb or 0.1 mg/kg). When using the syringe, the dog’s weight should be rounded down to the nearest 5 pound increment. The syringe provided with the meloxicam concentration of 1.5 mg/mL cannot be used to measure doses for dogs weighing less than 5 lbs (2.3 kg).
Alternatively, Metacam Oral Suspension can be given using the dropper bottle: one drop for each pound of body weight for the 1.5 mg/mL concentration (two drops for each kilogram of body weight).
