6. How is obesity caused?
- Energy input being more than energy output, causing fat to be stored as adipose tissue
- Energy input being less than energy output, causing fat to be stored as adipose tissue
7. What is Basal Metabolic rate, and what is the difference with RMR?
- The lowest amount of energy required to sustain physiological functions at rest, without food and after sleep. RMR is without measuring sleep
- The amount of basals used in metabolic functions, measured in Joules
8. What is Total Metabolic rate made of, including %'s?
- BMR/RMR (60-75%), Physical Activity (20-30%), Thermic effect (digestion, eating etc.)
- Fat, CHO's, Proteins (15%, 30%, 55%)
9. How can required calorie for RMR be measured?
- Males: Body Weight (lbs) X12, Women: Body Weight (lbs) X11
- 15000/ Weight in lbs
10. What are MET's?
- O2 consumption (ml)/ Body Weight (KG)/ minute
- BMR*RMR/ O2 consumption (ml)
11. Why can O2 Consumption be used to measure the energy expenditure of physical activity?
- It is directly related to energy expenditure
- It can't, it just measure MET's
12. How many MET's is RMR?
13. How many MET's might a football match/ farming be?
14. How do you measure daily calorific intake requirement?
- RMR/MET's per day
- BMR*MET's per day
15. If a Man weighs 144lbs and does 1 hour of football, how many calories will he need?
16. What is the average calories required for a men and women daily?
17. What should a balanced diet be made of?
- 15% protein, 30% Fats, 55% CHO's
- Butter, Marge, Potatoes
