RMR Results that Seem Unusually High
• Many obese people will test higher than you might expect. Studies
show that predictive formulas are particularly inaccurate for the
obese. When obese patients lift their heavy frame around, they
develop lean body mass simply to support their large bodies.
• False high readings
o Clients breathing fast and shallow (hyperventilating)
o Clients moving around or fidgeting
o Clients who have eaten, consumed stimulants, or exercised
prior to testing
• Research at the University of Utah indicates that the most helpful
environment for people to relax for an RMR test is to watch nature
videos with headphones on. The narration is distracting to the brain
while the subject matter fails to be stimulating.
RMR Results seem unusually low
• Air leakage. Check for air leakage around the client’s mouth, at the
nose clip, or at the connecting point of the hose.
• Re-test. A low metabolic rate may be a red flag of other medical
issues. If a second test is significantly low, refer to a physician for
follow up.
