Question

1. Calculated calories per day: Please show work
   1. Lydia, aged 25, 125 pounds, 5’4”, runs 5 miles 5 x/ week

Formula BMR For Women= 10 x weight (kg) + 6.25 x height (cm) – 5 x age (years) – 161

Convert Weight From Pounds To Kg and Convert Height From Inches to CM for calculations

              Conversion Weight From Pounds To Kg

             125 x 0.454= 56.75

            Conversion Height From Inches to CM

            5 x 30.48= 152.4                                                                                     

            4 x 2.54= 10.16

            152.4 + 10.16= 162.56 cm

2. To determine your total daily calorie needs, multiply your BMR by the appropriate activity factor, as follows listed below:
   • Moderately active (moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.55
   • Very active (hard exercise/sports 6-7 days a week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.725
