Validated algorithms for wrist-worn ActiGraph energy expenditure in adults?

15 June 2020 0 202 Report

I'm very far out of my lane and am at the end of my rope. Can anyone point me in the direction of validated algorithms to estimate energy expenditure using data from wrist-worn ActiGraph WGT3X-BT devices? Please and thank you for any input!
