181cm/100cm= 1.81m x 1.81m= 3.27m2
BMI= 95.24kg / 3.27m2
BMI= 29.07kg/m2 - Answer You're working as a personal trainer at a university
,recreation facility. You've been assigned a new client, Mike. He has been relatively
active but has never worked w/ a trainer or been on a structured program. He was a
college football player, but since graduation some 6yr prior, he has not been active. He
currently plays softball a couple of times a week and walks 2-3 times a week. He works
as a software programmer, sitting at the desk all day during his working hours. Even
though he feels fatigue, his overall goal is to get healthier and into better shape. Mike

caucasian, weighing 95.24kg at a height of 181cm. His BP is 112/78 mmHg, total
cholesterol is 221mg/dl (HDL and LDL are unknown), and FBG is unknown. Both his
father and his paternal grandfather are known to have CVD. There are no known
cardiovascular or metabolic diseases on his mother's side.

Overweight - You are a personal trainer working in a university recreation facility. You
have been assigned a new client, Mike. He has been fairly active but has never worked
w/ a trainer or been on a formalized program. He was a collegiate football player but
since graduation, some 6yr ago, he hasn't actively been participating. Currently, he
plays softball a couple of times a week and walks 2-3 times a week. He works as a
software programmer, so during his working hours, he sits at a desk all day. He states
that he can easily feel fatigued, but his ultimate goal is to be healthier and in better
shape. An informed consent and a health status questionnaire are performed on Mike.
He is a 40yr old caucasian, his body mass is 95.24kg and height at 181cm. His BP was
112/78 mmHg, his total cholesterol was 221mg/dl (HDL and LDL are unknown) and his
FBG was unknown. His father and his paternal grandfather have known CVD. His
maternal side does not have any known cardiovascular or metabolic diseases.
Given Mike's BMI is 29.07kg/m2, What is his BMI classification?

VO2max = 38.0ml/kg/min - Answer -
