InterMat: Inside info from the N.W.C.A

The NWCA’s one of a kind new Optimal Performance Calculator Program will develop a food intake plan that is not only healthy but also suited to the needs and desires of the individual wrestler. This innovative web based program has yet to be developed anywhere in the world and will be a valuable asset to any wrestler who has a desire to lose, gain, or maintain weight in a healthy and safe manner. Specifically, this Internet program will

accomplish the following tasks:

·         Calculate resting energy expenditure: the amount of energy (calories) expended to maintain life and normal body functions.

·         Calculate average daily total energy expenditure: the amount of energy expended in one day.

·         Determine the recommended daily energy intake: the amount of calories to be eaten in one day to meet the recommended rate of weight loss.

·         Provide the recommended number of food exchanges for all food groups based on the recommended daily energy intake and nutritional guidelines for a healthy diet (based on a 55% carbohydrate, 30% fat, and 15% protein dietary profile). 

·         Allow the athlete/coach/parent to choose foods based on personal likes/dislikes, and build a menu (at specific volumes and serving sizes) that honors your weight loss/gain plan

Provide sample menus that the athlete/coach/parent can adapt to meet specific needs.
