PNOĒ Resting Metabolic Analysis

This analysis measures a person’s caloric expenditure at rest. An individual’s resting metabolic rate is their body’s baseline. Knowing the resting metabolic rate enables a person to determine their calorie burn at rest and fat-burning efficiency. A person can compare the speed of their metabolism to others of the same gender, age, height, and weight. With this information, we can craft individualized calorie intake targets for specific goals to help a person lose, gain, or maintain their weight.

To prepare for the analysis, an individual should refrain from strenuous exercising for at least 12 hours before the test. Additionally, a person should not eat for at least 5 hours and not consume caffeine or nicotine for at least 6 hours before the test. The PNOĒ mask goes over the nose and mouth with a snug fit. The resting test consists of breathing normally for about 15  minutes. After the test, a person should discuss their results with an exercise physiologist..
