Popis: BACKGROUND The present study seeks to assess the validity of the InBody 520™ device to predict RMR in apparently healthy adults relative to a metabolic cart (the standard, yet time-intensive, method for determining resting metabolic rate). METHODS Twenty-six apparently healthy adults participated in the study. Predicted RMR (pRMR) was calculated by the InBody 520™ and measured RMR (mRMR) was determined by 30-minute gas analysis and ventilated hood system. Of the 78 measurement trials conducted, 64 yielded acceptable measurement trials. RESULTS A Pearson product-moment correlation was used to determine the relationship between pRMR and mRMR (r=0.87, P
