Resting Metabolic Rate

Boosting your metabolism is possible once you understand your body better. Metabolism, quite simply, is a measure of how much food or fat is converted to energy. So in order for us to build you a completely customized plan, we need to unlock your resting metabolic rate test (RMR).

​

A resting metabolic rate test (RMR) is the measurement of how much food, or energy, is required while you’re resting to maintain basic body functions, such as your heartbeat, breathing, and body heat. And that energy is measured in calories per day.

​

So once we’re able to determine your RMR, we will be able to recommend your optimal calorie intake to help you achieve your goals.

Boosting Your Metabolism Begins With An Easy RMR Test

The resting metabolic rate test is very simple. We’ll ask you to complete a 10-minute breathing test through a simple mouthpiece while sitting in a chair. This allows us to collect and analyze your air, measuring for oxygen consumption.

​

The resting metabolic rate test (RMR) can spot abnormally low metabolic rates and help us pinpoint the precise calorie intake required for weight loss, weight gain, or weight maintenance. In other words, once you understand how much energy your body needs, you will know exactly how much food you need!

What influences your metabolism?

In addition to your resting metabolic rate (RMR), everyday activities and exercise play a role in your metabolic rate. Genetics also plays a role. Honestly, some people are just lucky to inherit a fast metabolism, while some of us need a boost.

​

But what remains one of the most important factors influencing metabolism is your diet. Our bodies are designed to store energy, so knowing the precise calorie intake based on your body’s metabolism is key to helping you achieve your goals.
