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?

  • 1
  • 4.75
  • 2
  • 3

13. How many MET's might a football match/ farming be?

  • 8
  • 2.75
  • 6.73

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?

  • 576
  • 607
  • 463

16. What is the average calories required for a men and women daily?
