By taking a simple, 10 minute breath test, you can determine exactly how many calories you are burning each minute of the day, as well as how many calories you burn at different exertion levels during exercise. Imagine how much easier it would be to lose weight if you know exactly how much you were burning off!
Having your metabolism checked is as easy as 1-2-3!
1) RELAX. The testing unit measures resting metabolic rate. It is important that you be able to reach a resting state during your test. You should avoid activities such as exercise or stressful situations that will prevent you from relaxing for at least two hours prior to your test. Digesting a large meal, as well as taking stimulants, such as caffeine, can raise your metabolic rate and should also be avoided prior to your test.
2) SIT. Once you arrive, you will be able to sit comfortably while being tested. Your coach will then place a nose clip on your nose, and you will be given a disposable mouthpiece to breathe through. This mouthpiece is connected to the test unit by a hose that will measure how much oxygen you are breathing out. It is very important that you breathe only through the mouthpiece so this measurement will be correct. Both the mouthpiece and the tubing are sterile items that will be used only for you.
3) BREATHE. Finally, you just sit back and breathe. The test unit will indicate when it has calculated your metabolic rate. This takes anywhere from 5-10 minutes. The more relaxed and even your breathing, the quicker it will be able to determine your resting metabolic rate. It will then print out your results.
IT IS JUST THAT EASY!! In just 10 minutes, you can know precisely how many calories your body burns. No more being compared to charts and averages, no more wondering why diets aren't working. Metabolic Testing will take the guess work out of dieting and put YOU back in control!
