Slide2What is a Calorie??
The amount of energy your body gets from a food is measured in units called Calories.A calorie is a unit of measurement — but it doesn't measure weight or length. A calorie is a unit of energy. When you hear something contains 100 calories, it's a way of describing how much energy your body could get from eating or drinking it.Calories aren't bad for you. Your body needs calories for energy. But eating too many calories — and not burning enough of them off through activity — can lead to weight gain.
Slide3How many calories do I need??
Basal Metabolic RateTakes into account factors such as age and genderMale: 66 + (13.7 x wt. in kg) + (5 x ht. in cm) – (6.8 x age)Female: 655 + (9.6 x wt. in kg) + (1.8 x ht. in cm) – (4.7 x age)OR go to health.discovery.com for an easy calculator!
Then multiply by your total energy expenditure factor:
Sedentary = BMR x 1.2 (little or no exercise, desk job)
Lightly Active = BMR x 1.375 (light exercise, sports 1-3 days/wk)
Mod. Active = BMR x 1.55 (moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/wk)Very Active = BMR x 1.725 (hard exercise/sports 6-7 days/wk)Extr. Active = BMR x 1.9 (hard daily exercise/marathon train, etc)
Slide4Examples
20 yr old, 5’6”, 150 lb female soccer player1476.55 x 1.725 (very active)= 2547 calories22 yr old, 6’, 175 lb male video game player1920.57 x 1.375 (lightly active) = 2640.78 calories
