SOLUTION:
How long would it take our subject to burn 550 kcal
(equivalent of a McDonald’s Big Mac) at the steady state exercise
intensity .
ANS: Total Cost= Energy Expenditure x minutes
550kcal= 13.4kcal x min
Min= 550kcal/ 13.4kcal= 41.04 minutes
a) How many kcal of fat would be burned during this exercise bout (1 pt)?
b) How many kcal of carbohydrates would be burned during this exercise bout (1 pt)?
ANS: RER= .93 ? 4.961kcal/
L RER= .93 ? 77.4% CHO, 22.6% FAT
4.961kcal/L x 2.7L/min x 4min= 53.58 or 54kcal
FAT= 54kcal x .226= 12.2 kcal
CHO= 54kcal x .774= 41.8 kcal
