COSMED Quark CPET can help measuring Energy Expenditure of subjects by breath-by-breath gas exchange technology. Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) is the amount of calories the body needs to support basic bodily functions when the subject is not active. This is the number of calories the body burns when the subject is sleeping, sitting, or simply resting. The RMR is an important factor in determining...
