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.

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.

She is 5 feet 6 inches and weighs 210 pounds. She has been NPO (nothing by mouth) all night and arrives to the hospital at 7 in the morning to be prepared for surgery. Once the operation is over, the healing process begins, and the physician notices that the incision is not healing as fast as expected. Margarita tells her nurse that since the surgery, she has noticed bilateral temporal pain. Her hemoglobin drops dramatically, and she has been newly diagnosed with giant cell arteritis. The cure is large doses of prednisone. Large doses of prednisone cause steroid-induced diabetes. The doctor prescribed a 1,200-calorie diabetic diet.

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.
