Energy Balance/ Weight Management Flashcards
RMR
largest component of daily energy expenditure (60-75%)
required to maintain normal body function
Diet induced thermogenesis
Increase in energy expenditure after eating
10% of energy
Thermic effect of exercise
most variable depends on work
Visceral fat
accumulates within abdominal cavity
poses increased risk to health
What horomone promotes satiety
Leptin- produced by adipose tissue
Waist to hip ratio is a good mortality indicator in what pop
older imdv.
Densitometry
Water displacement, based on density of fat and fat free masss
DEXA
compartments w/ dif densities absorb dif amounts of low energy x rays
Energy expenditure calc
Athlete with 47.3 kg FFM, burns 14kcal a min works out for 60 mins
RMR= 500 + (22* FFM) = 1540 DIT= 1540*.3= 462 TEE= 14kcal/min * 60 mins= 840
effects of v low energy diets
rapid weight loss (1st week loss of glycogen/ water)
increases ketosis
effects of low fat diet
effective in reducing energy intake/ promote fat loss
fat is stored effectively + requires lil energy for digestion
high pro diet
has greater effect on satiety, thermogenic effect
low carb diet
ketogenic diet produces ketone bodies that suppress appetite
not recomended
@ what percentage VO2 max does most fat oxidation occur
55-65%
