Understand your physiology with the PNOE Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) Assessment.

​

Using the PNOE Gas Analyser, we can see what your preferred fuel source is at rest, understand your metabolic rate, basal metabolic rate (number of calories burned each day at rest) and provide calorie targets to help with weight gain, maintaining composition or losing fat.

​

Gas Analysis is the Gold Standard of RMR assessment.

​

The Process

The assessment starts before we see you, 5 hours prior in fact when you'll have your last meal including caffeinated beverage so you arrive to the test fasted. It's ok to continue drinking water in this time.

​

We'll start by setting up the massage couch for you to lie on, check the PNOE mask for size and air seal and to ensure you'll be comfortable for the assessment duration.

​

After some equipment calibration, we'll ask you to lie down and simply relax. Now we can start the assessment whilst you simply take it easy for 10 minutes.

​

The PNOE Gas Analyser will monitor O2 inspired vs CO2 excreted allowing it to calculate data post test.

​

Once the 10 minutes is up, we'll pop the mask off and get you up to sitting to make sure all is ok.

​

Now you're good to go! It's our turn to crunch the data and provide the report to you within 48 Hours.

​

We'll then contact you to organise a follow up consultation to discuss your results and answer any questions you may have.

​

If you are looking for any further advice with your nutrition, we can then put you in touch with one of our trusted clinicians who will be able to discuss your aims and help you achieve these.

​

RMR done, why not undertake a VO2 Max Test to set your unique training zones.
