12/19/2004 12:36:38 PM |  I put your information into our calculator www.myfit.ca/weightgainguide.asp and here is what we summarized:
To maintain your current bodyweight you need to ingest 2368 Kcal per day or 16576 Kcal weekly. To gain a pound a week (healthy) you need to ingest 2868 Kcal per day.
If you are exercising to lose fat you should be completing an anerobic cardio activity (long distance running) at a pace where your heart rate is 129 Beats Per Minute (BPM)
Your BMI is 18.28. This is generally considered underweight.If you consider yourself to have a lot of muscle then BMI means nothing. For more please visit here
Your calculated bodyfat percentage is 14.94. This is generally considered to be underweight. You should seek nutritional advice to learn how to gain weight.
This information should help you assess where you currently are with regards to your body composition. Please do not take this as completely accurate information. To assume these answers we also had to assume body compostion norms.
Thanks for your question,
Personal Trainer
