• Assessment
    In healthy adults, what period of restriction on physical activity (low to moderate intensity exercise) is necessary prior to RMR measure??
    • Conclusion

      If individuals have performed low to moderate intensity exercise (i.e., walking, jogging, cycling, or weight lifting) for 30 minutes or less, a rest period of 2 hours is needed prior to RMR measurement.

    • Grade: II
      • Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
      • Grade II is Fair;
      • Grade III is Limited/Weak;
      • Grade IV is Expert Opinion Only;
      • Grade V is Not Assignable.
      • High (A) means we are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect;
      • Moderate (B) means we are moderately confident in the effect estimate;
      • Low (C) means our confidence in the effect estimate is limited;
      • Very Low (D) means we have very little confidence in the effect estimate.
      • Ungraded means a grade is not assignable.
    In healthy adults, what period of restriction on physical activity (higher intensity exercise or physical activity of longer duration) is necessary prior to RMR measure?
    • Conclusion

      If aerobic or resistance exercise is performed at higher exercise intensities for longer durations, a minimum abstinence period of 14 hours is needed.

    • Grade: III
      • Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
