Everyone has a unique metabolic rate, just like your fingerprint. Scientific studies show that people with similar height, weight, and lifestyle habits can have widely different metabolic rates. This is the reason why some people can eat like a horse and never gain a pound, yet others can look at a piece of cake and gain weight!

The body gains or loses fat based on energy balance. Energy balance refers to the relationship between energy intake (eating) and energy expenditure (metabolic rate). The key to weight loss is to know your metabolism. It's a scientific fact that to lose weight you need to burn more calories than you consume. The problem is in knowing exactly how many calories your body needs each day and how many calories you burn during your daily activities and exercise to create the caloric deficit necessary to lose weight. Therefore, it is absolutely critical to measure your individual metabolic rate as the key to an effective weight management strategy.

A simple ten-minute assessment performed in the Time Travel® Prescription Fitness™ Center will determine your Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR), which shows you how many calories your body burns in a day, the cornerstone to any successful weight management strategy.
