Measures the number of calories your body burns at rest [RMR].
Is determined by measuring the amount of oxygen you consume while resting.
Tells you how many calories you would burn in a day – if you rested the entire day.
Can help you determine how many calories you should be eating each day to maintain, gain or lose weight.
A printout that teaches you about energy balance.
Comparison of your metabolic rate to what is "normal" for your height, weight, age, gender.
An estimate of the time it will take you to reach your goal weight.
We use the latest Indirect Calorimetry Analysis to measure Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR).
Learn Your Resting Metabolic Rate With Quick & Easy Testing.
Metabolism is the process of converting food into heat or energy. The speed and
efficiency of this process is called the metabolic rate. This rate is unique to each
individual and can be measured by the rate your body uses oxygen. With our
metabolic analysis technology, your precise metabolic rate can be determined
through a simple, painless breath test. This test will measure how many calories
you burn at rest. From that, we can calculate how many calories you should eat
per day based on your particular metabolic rate and your goals. Metabolic rates
vary widely due to factors such as age, body composition and hormone levels.
Therefore, knowing your unique metabolic rate gives you an accurate target
range for calories consumed and calories burned.
Resting Metabolic Rate...The Dreaded Plateau
Nothing is more frustrating than the dreaded weight-loss plateau! When you're
exercising regularly and eating right yet the scale just won't budge, it can make you want to just give up
especially when you're repeatedly reminded that weight loss is as simple as "calories in, calories out."
While that might be mathematically true, it doesn't tell the whole story. "It's not just the calories that
are important but the source of calories and the nutrients in the calories."A plateau is not
necessarily a bad thing. This is actually good news. It means that your body is adjusting to its new
weight and resetting the basal metabolic rate. Metabolic testing will keep you on top of these changes
and help you adjust caloric intake accordingly!
There's a lot more to consider than just your food. A host of other
variables can affect weight loss, performance, and overall health.
You need to look at all the stressors in your life affecting your
metabolism, including your workouts (are you overtraining?),
environment, any nutritional deficiencies, mental health, emotional
state, work, and lack of sleep. And of course you have your
genetics to contend with.
The good news is you can control all of these factors, for the most
part. To truly understand what you need to address, you first need
to know what's going on beneath the surface.Enter metabolic
testing.
Your metabolism is simply the way your body gets energy from food and uses it to help you live your life.
It sounds simple, but it affects everything from your fertility to your mood to whether you are one of
those people who can eat whatever they want and never gain weight. (We all know one of those people).
