◉ Physical Activity (PA) Estimates
Answer: 1.2 = little to no exercise1.375 = light exercise 1-3 days per
week1.55 = moderate exercise 3-5 days per week1.725 = hard
exercise 6-7 days per week1.9 = hard daily exercise/job
◉ To determine individual energy requirements, multiply the:
Answer: BMR x PA estimates
◉ Male EER Calculations:
Answer: EER = 662 - (9.53 x AGE) + PA x (15.91 x WT + 539.6 x HT)
,◉ Female EER Calculations:
Answer: EER = 354 - (6.91 x AGE) + PA x (9.36 x WT + 726 x HT)
◉ PA =
Answer: activity level
◉ WT (weight) =
Answer: lbs x 1 kg/2.2 lbs = kg
◉ HT (height) =
