Curious as to how many calories, roughly, are expended for an average movement by an average muscle, over an average range, for an average weight, both concentric and eccentric.
Let's calibrate with these two movements:
* full squat with 200 pounds - average torso/limb ratios/insertions.
* bicep curl with 30 pounds - average elbow length/insertions.
OR:
Let's say you were on your 10's, and you did 3 sets each of the following exercises with decent weight
Weighted chins (160 pounds bodyweight + 30 on belt)
Weighted dips (30 on belt)
Squats (150 full range of motion)
slight incline presses (50 pounds)
concentration curls (40 pounds each arm)
close-grip bench (130 pounds)
Would the caloric expenditure be around 500? 1000? 2000?
Just looking for some ballpark figures here.
