Resting Metabolic Rate Testing

Know your Metabolism

What is RMR?

Your resting metabolic rate is your caloric expenditure at rest. Each person’s metabolism is unique. After testing, you will be provided with a printout of your baseline calories burned and breakdown of how your body uses available energy sources. The results can be used for tailored nutrition, training, and weight management.
