Metabolic Testing with the MedGem

How many calories does your body burn each day? The 121 staff now offers you the opportunity to find out your resting metabolic rate (RMR) with the MedGem by HealtheTech, Inc.

What is RMR? Resting Metabolic Rate, or RMR, is the number of calories you burn each day at rest, with little or no activity, to maintain normal bodily functions.

Why do I need to know my RMR?  By knowing how many calories your body burns you can find your daily calorie target to lose, gain or maintain weight safely.

What is the MedGem? The MedGem is a handheld indirect calorimeter.  It safely and accurately measures your level of oxygen consumption and determines your resting metabolic rate (RMR).   

How does the MedGem work?  You simply hold the device and breathe into it for 10-15 minutes while seated and in a relaxed position.  There are protocols that are given to each participant prior to their test to assure accurate results.

There are three ways to get the MedGem testing done here at 121 Fitness:

  1. Schedule an appointment directly with your Personal Trainer.  $30/test
  2. Schedule an appointment with one of our fitness specialists by contacting 216-368-1121 or onetoone@case.edu (Members: $30/test, Non-Members: $50/test)
  3. Have test during a 1-hour Nutritional Consult with Lauren Melnick, our Registered Licensed Dietitian.  Contact 121 Fitness at 216-368-1121 or onetoone@case.edu to schedule. ($60/test & consult)
