Rate of heat output from resting human skeletal muscle
| Forearm resting VO2 at 35°C | 2.2 | ml (liter muscle)−1 min−1 | Zurlo et al. (1990) |
| Rate of muscle heat production at 35°C | 46 | J (liter muscle)−1 min−1 | Assuming 20.9 kJ (liter O2)−1 |
| Express in W (kg muscle)−1 | 0.73 | W (kg muscle)−1 | Muscle density, 1.06 kg liter−1 |
| Express in W (kg myoplasmic water)−1 | 1.2 | W (kg myoplasmic H2O)−1 | Whole muscle volume = 1.45 × myoplasmic H2O volume (Table 3) |
| Rate of muscle heat production at 25°C | 0.60 | W (kg myoplasmic H2O)−1 | Q10 = 2 (Barclay et al., 2009) |
