Understanding the body’s metabolic processes and caloric needs is crucial for successful weight loss, weight gain, weight maintenance and body recomposition. Our Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) testing rigorously analyses how your body consumes energy whilst carrying out basic functions, such as breathing and circulation. Using these results, nutritionists and personal trainers can provide tailored nutrient and energy balance plans, to best maximise your goals and help with weight loss or muscle gain.

How is the Resting Metabolic Rate tested?

At the beginning of your test, one of our experienced sport scientists will conduct a short interview with you to ascertain your current activity level, and outline any weight-related goals. A clinician will then equip you with a specialist mask, designed to painlessly measure the rate of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide emission. You will then be instructed to sit in a reclined position for fifteen to twenty minutes, whilst the mask collects the necessary data.

Our team of specialists will then calculate your RMR, in addition to providing a clinically reviewed report, within 5 working days. This report will include tailored advice for your body goals and your suggested caloric intake.

Who is Resting Metabolic Rate testing for?

An RMR score provides vital caloric information that everybody can benefit from: athletes and exercise enthusiasts, individuals concerned about energy balance, or those simply serious about improving their long-term health.

This test is especially perfect for clients interested in effectively
losing weight. Excess body fat is associated with persistent low-grade
inflammation, and predates later, more severe chronic disease, such as
coronary heart disease, liver disease, Type 2 diabetes, cancer and
 osteoarthritis.
