A 70 kg man wants to lose 10 lb. His schedule allows him to exercise for 45 minutes on 3 days per week. His VO2 Max is 52ml/kg/min.  He says he can comfortably run on a treadmill for 45 minutes working at 70% of his VO2 Max. Prescribe what his workout should be (i.e. treadmill speed) if he works out on a treadmill. What would an equivalent work rate be if he has to use a cycle for the same amount of time.  How many weeks would it take for him to lose 10 lbs. given that 1lb = 3500 kcal?
