Abstract
Resting energy expenditure (REE) is a common component of weight loss and body composition management programs that when measured directly requires expensive laboratory equipment. An alternative approach to implementing REE as a strategy for weight management that does not impose the same financial burden is to use REE prediction equations. The applicability of these predictive equations potentially eludes healthy populations, particularly athletes, as the equations have primarily been developed in overweight or sedentary populations. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy and potential gender differences of five different REE estimation equations in male and female athletes.
