From Sports Nutrition: Energy expenditure and energy balance · Components of Energy Expenditure
Between two people of similar size, which component of energy expenditure usually varies the most?

- Non-exercise activity (NEAT)

Answer: Non-exercise activity (NEAT)
Resting rate is tightly tied to body size and the thermic effect is a fixed fraction of intake, but daily non-exercise movement can differ by hundreds to over a thousand kilocalories.
