1. Has anyone come accross any research about the energy expenditure during caving? Now we all know that caving is as physically demanding as you want it to be and that it's so varied it would be impossible to come up with a hard and fast value but I'd be interested if anyone has ever done any work on it.
2. On a similar note, where typical energy expenditure values are available, what activities do people reckon are the most comparable to caving where you're able to define the cave type as appropriate. i.e. Aveline's Hole --> Walking
3. And just how energy intensive do people think squeezing is? Flat out crawls? I have no idea!
