Testing - Woodmere
Mall, Crossville
Your RMR (Resting Metabolic Rate) accounts for up to 75% of the
total calories we need each day. It’s a critical piece of
information to appropriately establish daily calorie needs, whether
you’re trying to lose or maintain weight.
Healthcare and fitness professionals recognize that metabolism is
impacted by a variety of characteristics such as age, gender, race,
fitness level, body composition, etc. When managing a client or
patient’s nutritional needs and calorie requirements, knowledge
of RMR is critically important.
Traditionally, healthcare professionals, who have not had access
to measurement technology, have relied on estimates of RMR. Because
metabolism is different among individuals, estimating can lead to
errors and inaccurate calorie budgets. As a result of these estimates,
individuals can be both over- or under-eating, and not be successful
in reaching their personal goals.
The test, administered by a Certified Personal Trainer, only takes
about 10 minutes. The cost is $28 for members and $35 for non-members.
