_________ Second largest component of energy expenditure after REE (or BMR); about 20% to 30% of total energy needs
Physical activity
Energy expended depends on _______ & _______ of activity
intensity and duration
________ affects energy expenditure more than any other factor
Body size
_______ is the third component of energy output
Thermic effect of food (TEF)
_________ energy required for body to digest, absorb, metabolize, and store food
Thermic effect of food
When food eaten, cells ________
increase activities
Increase cellular activity called ______ or ________
thermic effect of food (TEF) or diet-induced thermogenesis
Thermic effect is ______ total energy needs
7 - 10%
Energy used by body to adjust to changing physical and biologic environmental situations
Adaptive thermogenesis
Includes adaptation to cold, extreme changes in kcal intake, and physical and emotional trauma
Adaptive thermogenesis
Incorporates additional demands of illness and recovery
Adaptive thermogenesis
Physical fitness consists of three major components:
-flexibility (yoga)
-Muscular strength and endurance (weight training)
-Cardiovascular endurance (running)
