		The deprecated unit kilogram-force (kgf) or kilopond (kp) is the force exerted by one kilogram of mass in standard Earth gravity (defined as exactly 9.80665 m/s²).
		Although, The kilogram-force is defined thus, the measured value of the force exerted on a 1 kg mass varies as a function of position on earth.

		The kilopond is the name for the kilogram of force.
		A kilogram of force, or kilopond, is the gravitational force on a mass of one kilogram.
		A kilopond and a kilogram both weigh the same while on Earth at sealevel.

		In 1934, for example, the Swedish Royal Mint ended the uncertainty in Sweden by declaring the kilogram to be a unit of mass.
		The word “kilopond” was used internally by the Physikalisch-Technische Reichanstalt, the official German standards laboratory, as early as 1939.
		In 1945 Sweden adopted the kilopond as its unit of force.

		For workloads beyond 4th stage, increase intensity 25 watts (0.5 Kp) until termination heart rate is reached.
		Kilopond (kp) are for Monark cycle ergometers (6 m/rev) at 50 rpm.
		1 kilopond (on Monark) at 50 rpm = 50 watts = 300 kgm/min

	Kilopond. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		After some research, we arrived at the aforementioned kilopond, or kg-force.
		This unit was used by American authors in the early 70's who were trying to conform to the metric standard while finding a corollary for the infamous lbm-lbf-slug problem that plagues the English unit system.
		Yes, kg-force is a non-standard, technically incorrect unit, but I believe that this, instead of the kip, is correct.

		You will see the program but the function will not work.
		The kilopond is old and there is no use.
		Who wants to know more: In 1960 the force unit kilopond was changed to Newton in the SI system.

		I had the same question as Steve Wood, and then looked up kp in the glossary of the text.
		The text states: kp = kilopond (an old unit of force, = 1 kg of force) I was aware that this was an odd description, nevertheless I assumed a) it was old and vague and b) that was why we switched to the Newton!
