Weight Management
The handling of the weight is the maintenance of the corporal weight in a healthy level.
The regular exercise and a healthful diet is essential when it is to control his weight. A plan of control of weight depends on if you have overweight or insufficient weight.
A way easy to determine its own desirable corporal weight is to use the following formula:
• Women: 100 pounds for the first 5 feet of stature more 5 pounds by each additional inch.
• The men: 106 pounds of corporal weight during the first 5 feet of stature more pounds and 6 by each additional inch.
For a small corporal contexture, 10% are due to reduce. For a great contexture, 10% must be added.
The measurements of the corporal mass and fat are used to determine if a person is underneath or with overweight. A nutritionist or a physiologist of the exercise can help to calculate the corporal fat. The amount of recommended corporal fat defers between the men and women.
For the women:
• The amount of recommended corporal fat is 20 to 21%.
• The American woman average has approximately from 22 to 25% of corporal fat.
• A woman with the corporal fat superior to 30% is considered obese.
For the men:
• The amount of recommended corporal fat is 13 to 17%.
• The American man average has approximately 17 to 19% of corporal fat.
• A man with 25% of fat or considers itself obese more.
index of corporal mass (IMC) is an indirect measurement of the corporal composition. It as much considers the weight and the height. This index helps to determine the risk of certain diseases, like diabetes and hypertension.
It is important to indicate that the terms “overweight” and “obesity” do not mean the same.
