Definition

Total energy used in a day from resting metabolism, activity, exercise and food processing. In sports nutrition, its relevance depends on the athlete, event, training phase and practical context.

Practical use

Use the concept to judge whether fueling is sufficient for the athlete’s training load, health and recovery rather than focusing on body weight alone.
