Best Answer

1 met = 1kcal/kg/hr 1kcal = 3.97 btu At rest, the human body expends about 0.8 met. So, a 70 kg person at rest generates 0.8 * (3.97 btu * 70 kg) every hour. That would be about 222 btu/hr, which is not a measure of watts, so.... Since 1 btu/hr = 0.293 watts, that same person generates 65.14 watts at rest.
