The RMA defines this as "the presence of an incapacity which prevents any physical activity greater than 3 METS, where a "MET" is a unit of measurement of the level of physical exertion. 1 MET = 3.5 ml of oxygen/kg of body weight per minute or, 1.0 kcal/kg of body weight per hour, or resting metabolic rate. (A MET approximates to the energy required to rest quietly in bed. A 70 kg man would use about 3 METs when walking at 4 km per hour.)"
