Metabolism Assessment
A Metabolism assessment provides information on the body’s “Metabolic Engine,” or caloric intake versus energy used. Metabolism assessments which include Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)* and Total Energy Expenditure (TEE)**, along with an accurate body composition assessment, provide the information necessary to establish sensible weight goals. Individual nutrition and exercise/training programs will insure weight goals are achieved safely and effectively.
* Resting Metabolic Rate = The amount of calories required to maintain vital body functions (i.e., heart rate, brain function, breathing). It is the number of calories a person would burn if they were awake, but at rest all day.
**Total Energy Expenditure = The total amount of energy spent, on average, in a typical day.
