Resting Metabolic Assessment (AMR) — the energy foundation

‍

The AMR measures oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production at rest, allowing us to calculate:

• True basal energy expenditure, without estimates
• Fat and carbohydrate oxidation rates
• Metabolic balance status (homeostasis vs. physiological stress)

👉 It shows how the body produces and uses energy at rest, revealing whether metabolism is efficient or under overload.

‍

Metabolic Performance Assessment (AMP) — the response to challenge

‍

The AMP measures the same processes — oxygen consumption and CO₂ release — but during exercise, allowing us to observe:

• VO₂max, the key indicator of aerobic capacity
• Aerobic and anaerobic thresholds that define optimal training zones
• Energy efficiency at different intensities
• Effort tolerance and metabolic recovery time
  ‍

👉 It shows how the body responds to physiological load, converting chemical energy into muscular work.

‍

The synergy — from rest to performance

‍

By combining AMR and AMP, HOPLAB maps the complete curve of human metabolism — from basal state to peak performance.
This integration allows us to:

• Understand how resting metabolism influences performance
• Link energy inefficiencies to fatigue or reduced output
• Adjust training and nutrition plans based on real physiological needs
• Identify areas of chronic physiological stress and overtraining risk
  ‍

👉 Together, AMR and AMP reflect the body’s adaptive capacity — showing whether it is ready for effort or in need of recovery.

‍

Practical application

‍

The AMR + AMP combination is ideal for:

• Athletes and regular exercisers seeking to optimize performance and recovery
• Individuals in weight-loss, metabolic re-education, or longevity programs
• Health and exercise professionals who need objective data for prescription
• Corporate programs focused on energy and stress management

‍

The HOPLab vision

‍

At HOP Lab, we assess metabolism in all its dimensions — from physiological stillness to maximal effort.
The integration of AMR and AMP allows us to understand how the body transforms energy into movement, and how that process can be optimized.

It is science applied to performance, vitality, and longevity.
