Document Summary
***these recommendations will not be tested do not need to know these #s. Need to go beyond these minimums to loose weight etc. 7 mets * 30 minutes = 210 met min. 5 mets * 20 minutes = 100 met min. 7 mets and 5 mets reflective of intensity. 30 min and 20 min- duration / time. 310 met min * 3 = 930 met min / week. Yes: 500-1000 met min / week is recommendation. Should be greater to or equal to 500-1000. Adding more frequency will increase overall weekly number. **recommendation is to start with duration (he is already at 60 min which is pretty high) Need to remember bike how to calculate relative vo2 abs vo2 kcals per min. Once get kcals per min, can you take it one step further and figure it out for 40 min. Minimum guidelines ?? (2000 or more) anything more you can do / adjust? (frequency or duration?)
