energy =
work capacity (mechanical energy)
other types of energy include
chemical and heat energy
calorie
energy needed to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1ºC
joules
energy required to move a mass of 1g at a velocity of 1m/s
1 cal = __ J
4.186
first law of thermodynamics : conservation of energy
within a closed system, energy is neither created nor destroyed
transformed from one type to another
energy efficiency in humans
20% of all E produced is for movement/work
remaining 80% of energy produced?
maintains homeostasis = heat
what processes produce ATP
creatine phosphate
anaerobic glycolysis
oxidative phosphorylation
conditions for REE measurement
- resting in supine position > 30 min before
- fasting> 12h
- no exercise for > 24-48h
- no caffeine >4h
- no nicotine >1h
- no alcohol >48h
- darkened, quiet, thermoneutral environment
- normal acid-base balance
RER >1.0
lipogenesis: RER = 5.6
hyperventilation
other ways to measure/estimate EE
- HR monitoring
- activity records
- energy equations
- accelerometer/wearable devices
estimating energy intake: frequently used methods
- 24h recall
- food frequency questionnaires
- food diary
self reported food intake
accurate recording is needed
- portion sizes must be estimated correctly
- food intake is typically underestimated
- errors in data entry can occur

sedentary
Thermic effect of food accounts for __
10%
physical activity accounts for __
20%
