Metabolic Testing
RMR (Resting Metabolic Rate)
Best for:
- Baseline metabolism tracking
- Understanding how many calories you burn at rest
- Designing cutting, bulking, or maintenance nutrition plans
Why it’s useful:
Athletes can use this to set up a solid foundation for calorie intake—especially important during recovery phases, or when trying to manage weight without sacrificing performance.
AMR (Active Metabolic Rate)
Best for:
- Measuring total daily energy expenditure, including workouts, lifestyle, and movement
- Fine-tuning performance nutrition
- Planning for high-output days (competitions, doubles, etc.)
Why it’s useful:
This test gives a more realistic picture of how many calories you’re actually burning day-to-day. Great for dialing in macros to fuel performance and avoid under- or over-eating.
Get the Most Accurate Picture of Your Metabolism
For best results, metabolic testing should be done in the morning after fasting for at least 4 hours. To ensure accurate readings, avoid exercise for 24 hours prior to your test. This allows us to measure your true resting metabolic rate and give you precise insights into how your body burns energy.
