Bob is a high intensity endurance athlete and very focused on his nutrition. He recently met with a registered dietitian to learn more specifically about his protein needs. His registered dietiitan explained that protein requirements can vary from person to person based on body weight and type of physical activity. Bob informs his dietitian that he is 20 years old, 5'10" tall and weighs 180 pounds.

Based on this information, please answer the following questions:

1. What is the Recommended DIetary Allowance (RDA) for protein and how is this number different in comparison to current recommendations for a high intensity endurance athlete?

2. Calculate Bob's protein requirements according to the recommendations for a high intensity endurance athlete (Please show the steps you took to determine Bob's protein needs).

3. Bob is wondering what foods are good sources of protein and more specifically contain high quality protein. Please list 3 sources of high quality protein.

1. Determine an appropriate amount of protein for the sedentary adult and athletes listed below.

- Sedentary Adult

- Recreational athlete playing volleyball three times per week

- Bodybuilder who is training to increase skeletal muscle mass

- 10 km runner maintaining body composition

- Ironman distance triathlete in a high-volume training period

1.1. First identify the protein recommended per day based on the intensity of activity.

1.2. Then calculate the protein needed per day.

2. Assume that energy intake is adequate.

3. Calculations are needed so be sure to translate the g/kg recommendation to total g of protein, using a body weight that is characteristic of the sport.

4. Explain why you chose the g/kg recommendations used in your calculations.

Evaluate the effectiveness of the accounting principleguidelines for determining the market value of an asset, indicatingimprovements to these guidelines. Provide support for yourrecommendations.
