Answer:

Between 560 to 980 calories.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of fat calories an athlete should eat is calculated from the number of total calories that athlete should eat. In summary, the amount of fat calories should be 20 to 35% of the athlete's calorie calorie diet.

So if the athlete should consume 2800 calories in his diet, he should consume between 560 (20%) to 980 (35%) fat calories.

This does not mean that fat intake is released. You must comply with this recommended limit.
