• Client’s BMI

BMI = 24.4

BMI of the client is normal as it falls in between the category of normal weight.

• Client’s BMR
BMR = 10 x weight (kg) + 6.25 x height (cm) – 5 x age (years) + 5
BMR = 1700.25
The minimum number of calories needed by the client to keep his body functioning are 1700.25.

• Client’s target heart rate at 60% and 80% using the Karvonen formula

Minimum Training Heart Rate:
220 – 55 (Age) = 165
165 – 80 (Resting Heart Rate) = 85
85 x 0.60 (Minimum Intensity) + 80 (Resting Heart Rate) = 131 beats per minute

Maximum Training Heart Rate:

220 – 55 (Age) = 165
165 – 80 (Resting Heart Rate) = 85
85 x 0.80 (Maximum Intensity) + 80 (Resting Heart Rate) = 148 beats per minute

The training heart rate region of the client lies in from 131 to 148.

Rationale for Testing
...

Anyways, some calculations are needed in order to get the entire picture of his body condition.

Secondly, Chad’s BMR is 1865.04
Finally, it is essential to implement the Karvonen formula in order to find out Chad’s target heart rate at 60% and 80%.
The answer looks as follows: Target HR (60%) = 131
Target HR (80%) = 148
At this point of time it is ...
