Subjects of the measured data were thirteen healthy male participants ranked within the top 10% of their respective esports. Expired gas analysis indirect calorimetry measured gas exchange data during rest and gaming. The data shows that compared to resting conditions, competitive esports gameplay significantly increased median energy expenditure, oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production. Competitive gameplay also resulted in a significant increase in heart rate and decrease in R-R intervals when compared to rest. No significant differences were evident in time or frequency measures of heart rate variability. &rft.creator=Nicholson, M. &rft.creator=Poulus, D. &rft.creator=Robergs, R. &rft.creator=Kelly, V. &rft.creator=McNulty, C. &rft.date=2024&rft.edition=1&rft.relation=https://doi.org/10.1186/s40798-024-00708-6&rft.coverage=153.121962,-27.508753&rft_rights=© Queensland University of Technology, 2024.&rft_rights=Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/&rft_subject=Metabolism&rft_subject=Gas analysis&rft_subject=Esports&rft_subject=Heart rate variability&rft_subject=Physiology&rft_subject=Indirect calorimetry&rft.type=dataset&rft.language=English Access the data
