, Males: EER = 662 - (9.53 x AGE) + PA x (15.91 x WT + 539.6 x HT)
Females: EER = 354 - (6.91 x AGE) + PA x (9.36 x WT + 726 x HT)
1 kg = 2.2 pounds
1m = 39.37 inches
Females: EER = 354 - (6.91 x AGE) + PA x (9.36 x WT + 726 x HT)
where:
AGE = 33
PA = 1.12 (from chart)
WT = 130 lbs x 1 kg/2.2 lbs = 65.9 kg
HT = 69 in x 1 m/ 39.37 in = 1.75 m
Plug in the numbers for the variables:
EER = 354 - (6.91 x 33) + 1.12 x (9.36 x 65.9 + 726 x 1.75)
Multiply the numbers inside the parenthesis:
EER = 354 - (228) + 1.12 x (616.8 + 1270.5)
Add inside the parenthesis:
EER = 354 – 228 + 1.12 x 1887.3
Multiply before adding:
EER = 354 – 228 + 2113.8
Add and Subtract:
EER = 2239.8 calories
1. The distribution of fat in the body is important. Males often have an
___________ shape, often referred to as android obesity.
2. Females have a ______________ often referred to as gynoid obesity.
