Mark is a 35 year-old who has gained some weight since college. He participated in team sports in high school and college, but has had trouble staying active since graduation from college. He is 5' 10" and weighs 180 lb. His weight has stabilized, so he has been monitoring his food intake recently and found that he is consuming around 2800 Calories/day. His goal is to lose the 10 pounds he gained over the past year, but wants to gain muscle while losing fat. Since he knows that he needs help accomplishing his goals, he goes to a personal trainer to get advice on a diet and exercise program.
