Prince, aged 35 years, weighs approximately 185 pounds and 173 cm tall. Prince is a post-graduate student, walking approximately 2 km to university every weekdays and doing a part-time job at a supermarket that requires him lifting boxes to the shelves in the evening. (a) Calculate the estimated energy requirement (EER) by using the following Harris-Benedict equation for the calculation of basal metabolic rate (BMR) and physical activity table. (b) Determine whether Prince has energy balance at equilibrium, positive or negative energy balance if his total energy for the day comes from 320 gram (carbohydrates), 205 gram (proteins), 90 gram (fats) and 58 gram (alcohol). *1 pound = 0.453 Harris-Benedict Equation (Formula Harris-Benedict): Males : 66 + (13.7 x W) + (5 x H) - (6.8 x A) Females : 655 + (9.6 x W) + (1.7 x H) – (4.7 x A) W = actual weight (kg), H = height (cm), A = age (years) Energy cost of PA (% of BMR) Men Women Sedentary Involves sitting, driving or very low levels of activity 25-40 25-35 50-70 40-60 Lightly active Involves a lot of sitting, may involve some walking, moving around and light lifting Moderately active Involves work plus intentional exercise, such as an hour of walking /walking 4-5 days per week, may have job requiring some physical labor 65-80 50-70 come vavly active Involves great deal of physical labor such as regular heavy 90-120 80-100 lifting and digging Exceptionally active Involves a lot of physical activities for work & intentional exercise, applies to athletes who train for many hours/day 130-145 110-130
