$50 Resting Metabolic Rate Test
Discover exactly how many calories your body burns at rest. This is where most people start their fitness journey.
Book Your RMR TestYour Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) is the number of calories your body burns just to keep you alive — breathing, circulating blood, maintaining body temperature, and running your brain. This accounts for 60-75% of your total daily calorie burn.
Without knowing this number, you're guessing. Online calculators use generic formulas based on age, height, and weight — but your actual metabolism can differ by 300-500 calories per day from those estimates. That's the difference between losing weight, maintaining, or gaining.
If your goal is weight management, understanding your nutrition, or just knowing how your body works — the RMR test gives you exactly what you need. Many clients stop here and get excellent results.
Runners, cyclists, triathletes, and serious fitness enthusiasts often come back for VO₂ max testing. This tells you how to train smarter — your personalized heart rate zones, thresholds, and race pacing.
