Cutting edge science providing insight on your physiology


Metabolic Rate Testing beats other weight loss methods.


Eliminate the guesswork with metabolic rate testing

Metabolic Analysis is the gold standard to providing tailored nutrition and training based on your physiology and metabolic needs.

Why you should get an RMR Test


1. Learn how much you should eat

Through understanding your metabolic rate, calories can be established based on you as an individual. This data is then tailored to provide you with your fat loss, weight maintenance or weight gain calorie guidelines.

2. Make weight loss simple.

Knowing your RMR makes weight loss easier, as you know your baseline calories you are burning day by day.

3. Asses your metabolic health

Most people who struggle to lose weight believe they have a slow metabolism however, through numerous tests performed this is not usually the case.

Over 80% underestimate/miscalculate the amount of calories they consume and calories burnt through exercise. Usually through no fault of their own, devices such as smart watches are estimations of calories burnt.

A metabolic rate tests removes this excuse by measuring what your body actually burns, it can be highly motivating and encouraging to then make a change and reach your goals.

4. Lose weight and eat more.

You can diet on the highest amount of calories possible, yes, weight loss is slower. But, it is more sustainable and results in losing fat rather than fat & muscle mass/lean tissue. Unlike what is seen in most 8-12 week transformation programs... usually resulting in weight re-gain after rebounding as seen on TV programs like the biggest loser.

5. Remove the guesswork

Unlike calculators you find online, there is no guesswork associated with an RMR test, so it is far more accurate than calculating it yourself.

6. Stabilise weight loss & break weight loss plateaus

Once you reduce caloric intake and start a new exercise plan your body responds by making changes to your metabolism.

This is why we re-test to ensure we make any necessary changes such as, moving to temporary weight maintenance phase so your RMR can rise again following weight loss.

What does it measure?

Metabolic analysis measures

1) how fast or slow your metabolism is

2) your fat burning efficiency

3) daily caloric needs.

We then use this data to develop the nutrition and workout plan around your metabolism needs

Gold standard accuracy

The metabolic analyser has been independently validated by a multi-center committee of research groups from Rutgers University, Georgetown University, and VA Medical Center in Maryland as the most accurate portable metabolic analyser in the market. 


How does it work?

Lay down for A 20 minute test at the PEAKMYBODY Fitness Suite. The device measures the volume of air you are exchanging, alongside carbon dioxide and oxygen ratios which determines your fat & carbohydrates utilisation.

You must be in a fasted state between 4-12 hours prior to a test; consuming only water, no caffeine or smoking, and continue taking any medications as usual.

Why does it matter?

Having the insight to how many calories you are burning, allows you to diet and lose fat on the highest amount of calories.

This helps with diet sustainability over a long period of time, which ultimately leads to reaching your goals.

Too low calories leads to unsustainable dieting, low energy and bad decision making.

We find the balance you need.

Is my metabolism slow?

Most the people I test do not have a slow metabolism. They are typically coming from an over-fed state, i.e put on unwanted fat. Therefore, they have been consuming excess food and thus, metabolic rate is in good health and is not slow.

Every case is different and lifestyle, body-weight, muscle mass & how much you have been eating over the past few months all have an effect.

Metabolic rate is usually slowed, from excessive cardio, pro-longed periods of under consuming foods, lack of movement and lack of muscle mass.

How do you prepare for a metbolic rate test?

  • Be ready to lay down and relax for 15 minutes
  • Don't eat for 5-12 hours before a test
  • No caffiene 4-5 hours before a test
  • No smoking on the day of the test
  • Refrain from high intensity exercise 12 hours before your test
