METABOLISM TESTING
A metabolism measurement tells you how many calories your body burns in a day.
Until recently, there has not been an easy or economical way to measure metabolism. People have relied on predictive equations which are inaccurate for many, particularly those who participate in strength training programs.
Lean muscle mass burns significantly more calories than fat mass and perceptive equations can’t account for change in metabolism due to improvements in overall body composition. The BodyGem Metabolism Measurement Device by HealtheTech changes that certified personal fitness trainer can measure your metabolism with a simple breath test that measures oxygen consumption.
Our bodies use oxygen to metabolize food. Measuring how much oxygen your body consumes tells you exactly how many calories your body burns at rest each day.
Everyone’s metabolism is unique to them - a one size fits all approach to fitness does not work for most individuals. This explains why you can follow the same exercise routine and eat the same food as your friend, but have dramatically different results.
