Document Summary
Basal metabolic rate: least amount of energy required to perform a certain bodily function. Resting metabolic rate: amount of energy used while sitting around. Energy balance: energy in (food energy) vs energy out (activity bmr) (1c =1000cal) (1c =1000kcal) Body composition= fat-free (lean) (%) + body fat (%) Fat free (lean) (%) muscle, bone, connective tissue, non-fat elements of organs/water. Body fat mass (%) essential fat (3% male, 12% female) fat in body necessary for normal bodily function. Non-essential fat (storage fat) adipose tissue (cid:894)fat (cid:272)ells(cid:895) (cid:271)elo(cid:449) ski(cid:374) : dexa dual energy x-ray absorptiometry, densitometry measure how well you float (density & water displacement, bio electric impedance, bmi, waist circumference. Relationship between bmi and body fat (as body fat increases so does bmi)
