How Much Energy Is In A Human Body?

In a nutshell, the average person has about 100 watts of power available at any given moment. A professional sprinter may have up to 2,000 watts of power. And an Olympic track star like Usain Bolt has been measured with power outputs of over 10,000 watts. But these are all short bursts of energy. If you could maintain that pace for an hour, you’d burn up all the energy in your body very quickly and would need to replenish it with food.
There are four types of energy that humans have:

1. Heat energy:
   This is the thermal energy that humans generate from their metabolism. It helps to keep our bodies warm and is used to power many of the chemical reactions that occur in our cells.
2. Electrical energy:
   This is the energy created by the flow of electrons through our bodies. It powers our nervous system and muscle movements.
3. Radiant energy:
   This is the energy of electromagnetic waves, including visible light, ultraviolet light, and X-rays. It is used in vision and can also cause damage to cells.
4. Chemical energy:
   This is the energy stored in the bonds between atoms in molecules. It is released when those bonds are broken and is used to power many of the biochemical reactions in our cells.
