1. Before you get started on a weight management program, it is always good to begin with tracking an athlete’s dietary behavior with a food log/journal. Upon doing so, you find on average this athlete is consuming the following: PRO = 125g/day; CHO = 315g/day; and FAT = 79g/day. Calculate the number g/kg for each of the following: PRO (g/kg: 125g/105kg= 1.19g/kg CHO (g/kg): 315g/105kg= 3g/kg FAT (g/kg): 79g/105kg= 0.75g/kg 2. From his average macronutrient intake, how many calories is he currently consuming on an average day? PRO kcals = CHO kcals = FAT kcals = Total =
