If an endurance athlete weighing 145-pounds consumes the entire can of Turkey Chili, what % of their daily protein needs would they have consumed? Hint: your calculations should produce a range; choose the number that falls within that range.

77.33%

Explanation:

Using the idea of nitrogen balance, the (USRDA) sets 0.8 g of protein per kg of body mass for an adult.

Since 1 pounds = 0.454kg, then 145 pounds gives 65.77kg

But an endurance athlete needs 15g of high quality protein daily.

Since the entire can of Turkey Chilli has 11.6g of protein, then the endurance athlete weighing 145 pounds has consumed:

11.6g / 15g x 100% = 77.33%

the answer is anaerobic activities
