LAB5- Resting Metabolic Rate Flashcards
total energy expenditure (TEE)
the amount of calroies (energy measured in kilocalories) burned by the human body in 1 day
what 3 categories is TEE divided into
-physical activity
-diet-induced thermogenesis
-resting energy expenditure
physical activity is what % of TEE
30%
physical activity aspect of TEE varies greatly depending onw hat
the client’s activity level
diet-induced thermogenesis
refers to the increase in energy expenditure that follows the ingestion of food
diet-induced thermogenesis is what % of TEE
10%
resting energy expenditure is what % of TEE
60%
determinants of physical activity in TEE
-intensity
-duration
-body weight
-genetics
determinants of diet-induced thermogenesis in TEE
-amount of food + composition
-hormones/SNS
determinants of resting energy expenditure in TEE
-body weight
-height
-fat free mass (SMM + OM)
-fat mass
-age
-gender
-hormones (thyroid, leptin, insulin, etc.)
-SNS
resting metabolic rate
the energy required to maintain physiological functions when the body is at complete rest
what unit is resting metabolic rate measured in
kilocalories
biological definition of resting metabolic rate
the amount of energy expended when an individual is awake, in a postabsorptive, thermoneutral state while having not exercised for typically 12hr
-not asleep because when sleeping your body becomes paralyzed + energy works differently
RMR is known at ___
REE (resting energy expenditure)
is RMR synonymous with basal metabolic rate
no
what energy does RMR include
energy used for breathing, heart contractions, organ functions, basic neurological functions, etc.
RMR is monitored in…
many chronic disorders + conditions
RMR is an extremely important value for who
clients that want to change their body composition
basal metabolic rate (BMR)
minimal energy expenditure for survival
-basic bodily functions, such as breathing, circulating blood + growing + repairing cells
-think survival, bare minimum
`
BMR is measured after a ____ hour fast
14-18 hour
BMR requires that client abstained from exercise for at least ___ hours
24 hours
BMR is easy/difficult to measure clinically
difficult
resting metabolic rate (RMR)
distinction from BMR
similar to BMR but does not exclude all calories from digestion (thus the shorter fast) + does not have as strict of a protocol on restrictions from exercise before the measurement
