Fitness Calculations


My foot surgery means I will have to find a way to cross-train the next few weeks. While searching at the 24-Hour Fitness web site, I found these fitness calculators.

If I sat around doing nothing my body would burn 1879 calories per day. Luckily getting into and out of bed each day help me burn more calories than that. ;)

My body mass index is 22. The link below says, "Males with a BMI above 27.8 and women over 27.3 are considered overweight. Males with a BMI less than 20.7 and women below 19.1 are classified as underweight."

This link says I need to eat 2631 calories per day for my height, weight, and moderate amount of exercise. I do not think I am eating 2631 calories per day.
