Hello from Legendary Fitness!

        …transforming your goals into legendary results.

 

Do you possess the keys to the inner universe?  Richard writes a review of Bill Pearl’s autobiography, Beyond the Universe, in this week’s Bodybuilding for Baby boomers article, at Bodybuilding.com.

Baby Boomer Quick Tips and Facts

How many calories do you need?  Start with your resting metabolic rate (RMR), multiply your weight by 10.  Now, multiply your RMR by 20% for sedentary lifestyle, by 30% if you are fairly active, or by 40 if you are active.  If you are very active, engaging in competitive sports, multiply your weight by 50%.  Add the result to your RMR to determine the daily caloric intake to maintain your current weight level.
