Metabolism Testing
The Metabolic testing occurs with you reclined in a chair with your feet up as relaxed as possible. Whilst in this position you are breathing through a mouth piece which directs your exhaled air into a piece of equipment that will tell us in 12minutes what your resting metabolic rate is (RMR).
Your RMR is how many calories you use in a resting state which for most of us is about 70% of the calories you use in a day. Based upon your result the metabolic machine will also predict your energy expenditure when doing non-exercising daily activities and if you were to engage in 30minutes of moderate activity such as walking. We then know how many calories you need across a day as the machine gives us your personal Target Caloric Zones which we can match to your nutrition plan so you achieve which ever is your specific goal.
- weight loss
- maintenance
- gain
These Zones will show you the maximum amount of food you can consume and still achieve your goal. There is no more wondering how much I should eat, or searching through magazines, watching infomercials or whatever else you have tried. So contact us now to know EXACTLY what your calorie requirements are.
If you are an exerciser we can conduct a VO2 Fitness test with you to tell us how many calories you use at different exercise intensities. This test is also used as an indicator of your fitness level.
