Calculate the EER for a female who is 33 years old, 5 feet 9 inches tall, 145 pounds
with a low activity lifestyle.
Activity Level PA Men PA Women
Sedentary - No exercise 1.00 1.00
Low Activity - exercises the equivalent of walking 2 miles
per day at 3-4 mph 1.11 1.12
Active - exercises the equivalent of walking 7 miles per day 1.25 1.27

per day 1.48 1.45
Males: EER = 662 - (9.53 x AGE) + PA x (15.91 x WT + 539.6 x HT)
Females: EER = 354 - (6.91 x AGE) + PA x (9.36 x WT + 726 x HT)
1 kg = 2.2 pounds
1m = 39.37 inches
Females: EER = 354 - (6.91 x AGE) + PA x (9.36 x WT + 726 x HT)
where:
AGE = 33
PA = 1.12 (from chart)
WT = 130 lbs x 1 kg/2.2 lbs = 65.9 kg
HT = 69 in x 1 m/ 39.37 in = 1.75 m
Plug in the numbers for the variables:
EER = 354 - (6.91 x 33) + 1.12 x (9.36 x 65.9 + 726 x 1.75)
Multiply the numbers inside the parenthesis:
EER = 354 - (228) + 1.12 x (616.8 + 1270.5)
Add inside the parenthesis:
EER = 354 – 228 + 1.12 x 1887.3
Multiply before adding:
EER = 354 – 228 + 2113.8
Add and Subtract:
EER = 2239.8 calories
