12%
Why is it essential for females to have body fat at at least 9%?
It is essential for proper hormonal and reproductive functions
What is the most effective way to reduce body fat?
A Combination of decreasedkcal intake and increased energy expenditure
What are the consequences of reduced cho intake for athletes? (2)
1. Hypoglycemia 2.Fatigue
Why is protein essential in the body? (3)
- body cannot maintain protein balance - Skeletal muscle mass and functionality are reduced - Immune system is negatively affected
What is the percentage of an adult’s body that is water (by weight)?
60% x weight
What is the source of largest amount of water loss in sedentary individuals andathletes?
- Urine (6-7c) - Sweat (1/2 c to 9c in athletes)
What are the 2 most important minerals lost through sweat? What happens if they aren't replenished?
Loss of zinc andiron = compromising of immune system
What are the 3 ways to measure hydration?
- Scale weight - Urine color - Degree of thirst
How much water should be replenished after a workout?
1.5 L/kg for every pound of bodyweight lost immediately after exercise
What is the CHO energyRecommendations for athletes?
5-10 g/kg
What is the PRO energyRecommendations for athletes?
1.2 - 2 g/kg
What is the fat energy recommendations for athletes?
1-3 g/kg

What are the 4 special needs of child and adolescent athletes?
1. Increased protein need 2. Iron 3. Calcium and vitamin D to prevent bone-related problems 4. Greater water and hydration need than in adults due to the lack of adequate functioning sweat glands in children
