RMR Test

[ridge11]

I just had my rmr tested on a machine that measured it based on your breathing. The company says it is accurate to 30 cals but i am very skeptical. I am 6' 210 tested with calipers at 8% but i think i am closer to 10%. I walk 6 miles a day to and from work and do heavy training moderate volume 4-5 times/week. Currently running 120mg test and 300mg tren e. My rmr was 3658 cals/day. This seems very high,considering the amount of exercise i get i would need 5000 just to maintain. Does anyone have any info about the accuracy of this type of machine?

Base metabolic rate or rmr could be that high. if you have considerable muscle mass then your bmr or rmr which ever you want to call it would be much higher than an average joe. add your daily activity and then yes you could actually need 4500-5000 cals a day. I am not saying it is totally accurate but sounds pretty close to me based on stats you provided. AAS in the equation will raise bmr/rmr considerably!
