Calorimetry and CPET — Measuring Energy Through Breath

CPET • 7 min read

Every breath we take during exercise carries a clue about how efficiently our body converts fuel into energy. Calorimetry is the science that helps us measure this energy expenditure — and when combined with Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET), it becomes one of the most insightful tools in functional physiology.

🫁❤️🚴‍♂️📈 Basic Exercise Physiology — What CPET Really Measures Inside the Body

CPET • 15 min read

When we perform a CPET, we are essentially watching the body shift from rest to progressively higher levels of metabolic demand. Nothing works in isolation — the heart, lungs, blood vessels, and muscles move together like a synchronized system. The graph I use for teaching shows these changes very clearly. This section breaks down each variable in a simple, practical way.
