a. Android storage: apple-shaped central fat pattern associated with a greater risk for cardiometabolic disease; easier to lose fat due to specific receptors which allow it to be used as fuel (more common among males)
b. Gynoid storage: pear-shaped pattern of body fat storage in the lower half of the body surrounding the hips, glutes and thighs; harder to lose due to specific receptors which make it resistant to use as a fuel (more common among females)

86
Q

Using the Target Body Weight Formula, calculate a target body weight for the following client:

A 35-year old female weighs 150 lbs. and has a body fat percentage of 28%. Her goal to reach 25% body fat. What would be her target bodyweight at 25% body fat?
Fat mass
Fat-free mass
Target body weight

A

Fat mass 150 x 0.28 = 42 lbs.
Fat-free mass 150 – 42 = 108 lbs.
Target body weight
(108 / [1 – 25/100]) = 144 lbs.
