Activity Frequency for Katch-McArdle

[run_n_fool]

Nova,

Thanks for the reply. What I meant was that both methods come up with a BMR (through 2 different formulas) and then both methods multiply that BMR by some factor that considers activity level.

In terms of my work outs, I probably spend an hour to 1:15 or so per weight session, sometimes I'll follow that by :20 of very light cardio (HR < 130).

3x weekly I'll do 30-45 minutes of cardio on a non-lifting day. Typically I run and my HR stays around 150.

i lift 1 day on 2 days off, so one week it will be 3x, the next 4x. I try to do my cardio on either or both of the 2 off days.
