“…The Oxycon Mobile system is a portable, wireless metabolic system measuring gas exchange in each breath which has been demonstrated as valid for obtaining metabolic data during exercise [9, 13]. The main components of the system are a sensor box for the gas and flow signals, a data exchange and storage unit, a calibration and receiver unit and a computer.…”

Ethnic minorities share an unequal burden of cardiometabolic syndrome. Physical activity (PA) has been shown as an important factor to improve the health outcomes of these diseases. Metabolic equivalents (METs) have been calculated for diverse activities; however, most cultural activities have not been evaluated. Hula, the traditional dance of Native Hawaiians, is practiced by men and women of all ages but its MET value is unknown. To our knowledge, this is the first scientific evaluation of energy expenditure of hula. Nineteen competitive hula dancers performed two dance sets of low and high intensity hula. METs were measured with a portable indirect calorimetry device. Mean and standard deviations were calculated for all the variables. A two-way ANOVA was conducted to identify differences for gender and intensity. The mean MET were 5.7 (range 3.17 – 9.77) and 7.55 (range 4.43 – 12.0) for low intensity and high intensity, respectively. There was a significant difference between intensities and no significant difference between genders. This study demonstrates the energy expenditure of both low and high intensity hula met the recommended guidelines for moderate and vigorous intensity exercise, respectively and that hula can be utilized as a prescribed PA.

“…A decrease in IC of more than 11% was used as classification of DH. This cut-off was based on the results of previous studies who assessed the repeatability of IC manoeuvres in rest and during exercise, within subjects but between different devices as well, and found values of 8Á5-11% (Hannink et al, 2010c;Lahaije et al, 2013a).…”
