Metabolic testing is the gold standard test for determining your Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR).

This test tells you exactly how many calories your body burns at rest, everyday just to keep alive and the lights on upstairs.

It also tells us how many calories you need to burn with exercise to help you weight loss goals.

The amount of calories you burn through daily living such as physical activity and exercise depends on your lifestyle and what you chose to do each and everyday, this is highly modifiable. However your RMR is not.

Your RMR test is very individual and although there is simple algorithms used to attempt to match age, weight, height and sex to your caloric requirements, this is still only a prediction and can be way out when compared to our Gold Standard RMR test.

The RMR test that we conduct at Fighting Fit Physio is very simple and is performed in reclined sitting to accurately and precisely giving you your caloric requirements for your metabolism so you know exactly how many calories to consume for weight management and weight loss.

It takes the guess work out of weight loss and allows you to eat better and burn more with the right dietary input.

We understand that everyone is unique, which is why we don’t just provide you with a generic diet plan when it comes to achieving your weight loss goals. Instead, our RMR testing provides us with an understanding of your metabolic rate and an insight into the amount of energy your body uses – so that we can tailor a dietary plan specifically for you. We use this information to calculate the number of calories you should be consuming each day, provide you with nutrient recommendation
