バランスダイエットと仮定すると、カロリー比で、炭水化物60 %, タンパク質20%, 脂質20%。各4 kcal/g, 4 kcal/g, and 9 kcal/gなので、乾燥重量1 kgでは4 X ( 600 + 200 ) + 9 X 200=5000 kcal
ハイキングの運動強度を7 Metsとする(Jette, et al. 1990によると、hiking 6, mountaineering 7-8. ) 。
消費エネルギー kcal = METS X hours X body weight、
男 65 kg, 女53 kg、8時間行動と仮定すると
男 7 X 8 X 65 =3640 kcal, 女 7 X 8 X 53 =2968 kcalとなる。 Ludlow et al (2017)により、body weight と backpack weightは等価。
体重の20%のバックパックを持つと、男は3640 X 1.2 =4368 kcal, 女は2968 X 1.2 = 3562 kcal. 一日の必要な食料の重さは5000で割って、各0.87kg と0.71 kg
体重の30%のバックパックを持つと、男は3640 X 1.3 =4732 kcal, 女は2968 X 1.3 = 3858 kcal. 一日の必要な食料の重さは5000で割って、各0.95kg と0.78 kgになる。
Providing the balanced diet, then the proportional calorie is carbohydrate 60%, protein 20%, lipid 20%, therefore, 1 kg of dry food contains 4 X ( 600 + 200 ) + 9 X 200=5000 kcal.
The metabolic equivalents(METS) of hiking may be 7 ( according to Jette, et al. 1990 , hiking is 6, mountaineering is 7-8. )
The energy consumption kcal = METS X hours X body weight
Providing male 65 kg, female 53 kg, 8 hour hiking.
male 7 X 8 X 65 =3640 kcal, female 7 X 8 X 53 =2968 kcal. Based on Ludlow et al (2017), body weight is equivalent to backpack weight.
Then, in the case of 20% of backpack weight. male 3640 X 1.2 =4368 kcal, female 2968 X 1.2 = 3562 kcal. The weight of necessary food is estimated dividing by 5000 kcal. then 0.87kg and 0.71 kg
In case of 30 % of backpack weight, male 3640 X 1.3 =4732 kcal, female 2968 X 1.3 = 3858 kcal. The weight of necessary food is male 0.95kg, female 0.78 kg.
