Although we hear the word metabolism in the media, it is actually a very complicated subject that emcompasses hundreds of chemical processes in the human body. A Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) Test is not a measure of your metabolism, but your metabolic rate, which is how many calories you burn.

RMR is the amount of calories you would burn if you would continue to sit in a chair all day. It is determined by measuring all the oxygen y used durning the test. The rate at which a person uses oxygen determines how much they are burning.
