Caloric Needs Based on Body Mass

Body mass index
  • Calories per day – minimum number of calories per day is calculated by sex and height in accordance with guidelines from the Institute of Medicine. When the Body Mass Index (BMI) is 25 or greater, the minimum is the amount of calories reduced by 15% to get food that is not too severe and can be maintained for years without any adverse effects by ordinary people with health. The number of calories may need to be increased depending on level of activity, but they increased more than 15% may not result in weight loss. To lose weight, you have to get the carbohydrates that are less than 60 grams per day (no more than 240 calories) are distributed throughout the day.
  • Gram of protein per day – This value is calculated from the normal maximum Body Mass Index (BMI), height, and your activity level. He was associated with 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram for low activity level, 1.1 grams for moderate activity, and 1.4 grams for vigorous activity. Other components of foods, including essential fatty acids and carbohydrates should be proportioned to provide the minimum calories per day. For men and women the same height with the requirements of caloric content is lower for women, but the same protein requirements for men and women. This means that, in general, women have a diet richer in protein than male diets. Every diet should always include at least the minimum amount of protein to prevent loss of muscle tissue when the amount of caloric intake is reduced. A typical high protein diet will acquire 30% of calories from protein, 30% from fat, and 40% from carbohydrates. A low-carbohydrate weight-loss diets are generally derived 25% calories from protein, 65% from fat, and 10% from carbohydrates. The table below shows that the percentage of providing more than the minimum protein requirement 2000 – and 1800-calorie diet.

Setup is done through the calculation of calories needed each athlete by taking into account body mass index (BMI), Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), the Specific Dynamic Action (SDA), physical activity and growth factors. While the nutritional adequacy is determined from the Energy, Carbohydrate, Protein and Fat as a source of calories needed to athletes.

Linear Programming with minimization problem was solved by the Simplex Method M (M Technique), is expected to provide solutions for the determination of the calculation of nutritional needs of athletes.
