Textbook Question
Chapter 8.3, Problem 8.1TI
Estimate your energy requirement based on your current age, weight, height, and activity level.
Physical Activity (PA) Factors for EER Equations
| Men | Women | Physical Activity | |
| Sedentary | 1.0 | 1.0 | Typical daily living activities |
| Low active | 1.11 | 1.12 | plus 30–60 min moderate activity |
| Active | 1.25 | 1.27 | plus $ 60 min moderate activity |
| Very active | 1.48 | 1.45 | plus $ 60 min moderate activity and 60 min vigorous or 120 min moderate activity |
NOTE: Moderate activity is equivalent to walking at 3 to 4½ mph.

Andree is a 25-year-old powerlifter. He weighs 235 lbs and is 6 ft 1in tall. His average day includes 90 min weight lifting at a MET of 6. He does HIIT workouts 3x/week for 30 minutes at a MET of 8.
TDEE with TEA including both workouts: 2900 kcals + (961 kcals) + (427) - (213 kcals) = 4075 kcals
Analyze his macronutrient needs. Determine the percentage ranges and g/kg ranges for protein and carbs. Determine the percentage range for fats. Prioritize carbohydrates and protein and determine the kcals of each. Determining remaining fat intake and double-check the percentage is within a healthy range.
Final Protein g, kcals,%:

A person is performing an exercise routine that would be considered vigorous for them. They are doing 5-minute runs, during an interval style workout. Calculate their RER and energy expenditure for an individual with a VCO2 of 3.8 L/min and a VO2 of 4.2 L/min and a total exercise duration of 25-minutes
A student sp ends 6 h a day sleeping, 13 h sitting (attending classes, eating, playing video games, etc.), 0.5 h washing and dressing, 2.75h walking (3 mph), 1 h standing, 0.25 h playing basketball, and 0.5 h cycling (10 mph). What are the student's averaged activity activity level and metab olic rate? Assume the BMR of this 55 kg, 20-yr-old female student is 1300 kcal/day. For a similar example check out the Scottish coal miner (Table 6.31) in the reading and lecture slides.

- Your client, Robert, came back from maximal graded exercise testing and told you that his clinical exercise physiologist recommended moderate exercise intensity physical activity. He is 25-year old, healthy, and his maximal VO2 is 35.5ml/kg/min. His body weight is 162lbs. What is the range of the moderate-intensity in terms of %HRR or %VO2R (Hint: 30-39%HRR or VO2R is light intensity)? Calculate moderate intensity using %VO2 Reserve method:arrow_forwardSharon is a 21-year old 200-meter runner, who now trains twice daily for 2-3 hours each session.Currently, her body fat is 12% and muscle mass is 31%. During her the sessions where she trainswithin 15 minutes of eating, she usually feels fatigued faster than sessions, where she trains 2-hours after eating. Discuss the following questions;1. What are the possible implications of her body composition distribution on her physicalperformances?2. What is the physiology of training within 15 minutes of eating, versus 2-hours after?3. What energy systems are activated to complete her 21:54 second 200-meter run?arrow_forwardA 28 year old male with a mass of 85kg is completing his final stage of a PWC170 test at a power of 200 W and an average heart rate of 166 bpm.What is the tension he must provide in order to maintain his current workload. 31 N Missing the rev/min. 3.1 Kp 40 N 3.1 Kpm/minarrow_forward

Draw a dashed line across graph to show VO2max.arrow_forwardDescribe how walking exercises can be beneficial to a 70-year-old former smoker (quit in the last 3 months) who was diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Describe how the movement would be beneficial to the client and using your best judgment discuss appropriate 1: duration and 2: intensity. (Use appropriate metrics with the ranges: HR, HRR, METS, RPE)arrow_forwardAzhan is a national marathoner and currently attend training camp for 3 months at Cameron Highland to train at higher altitude. His body weighs 55kg with the height of 168cm. His sum 7 skinfold is 40mm. Due to the intense training, he always skips his main meals and in order to catch some sleep to recover. i. After 1 month of this pattern, he was suspected with relative energy deficiency in sports (RED-S). Define RED-S and what is the mechanism of this condition. ii. RED-S is previously known as female athlete triad, define health related female athlete triad. iii.
