As part of a weight loss program, Colton has been asked to exercise more. Along with a proper diet, he has been asked to burn an extra 250 kcal/day through exercise.  Given that the exercise intensity that Colton should work at in order to meet his energy expenditure goal if he only wants to excerise for 40 min/day is going to be 1.25. Given that if Colton's weight is 96 kg, his relative VO2 is 13.02. Colton's "bad knees" prevent him from running on a treadmill, so you decide to prescribe cycling exercise for him. What should his work rate (in Watts) on the cycle erogmeter be, in order to exercise at the intensity 13.02.

Question

As part of a weight loss program, Colton has been asked to exercise more. Along with a proper diet, he has been asked to burn an extra 250 kcal/day through exercise. 

Given that the exercise intensity that Colton should work at in order to meet his energy expenditure goal if he only wants to excerise for 40 min/day is going to be 1.25.

Given that if Colton's weight is 96 kg, his relative VO2 is 13.02.

Colton's "bad knees" prevent him from running on a treadmill, so you decide to prescribe cycling exercise for him. What should his work rate (in Watts) on the cycle erogmeter be, in order to exercise at the intensity 13.02.
