Summary

Resting metabolic rate (RMR) is the amount of energy the body uses at rest, and accounts for 60%-70% of daily energy expenditure. Although measured at rest, RMR is strongly influenced by physical activity because the increased metabolic rate during exercise is partially carried over even when exercise stops. Therefore, persons who are physically active maintain higher RMR and less body fat than do sedentary controls. It is well known that high energy intake stimulates whereas caloric restriction reduces RMR. Food thermogenesis corresponds to approximately 10% of daily energy expenditure. Diet-induced thermogenesis is greater on a high protein and carbohydrate diet than on a fat diet. Other factors the affect RMR are age (RMR tends to decline progressively over the life span) and body composition (lean body mass is regarded as the main determinant of RMR). However, the research regarding the effect of a specific combination of macronutrients and exercise on RMR is scarce.

Therefore, the aim of the current study is to assess the combined effect of a meal composition and physical activity on RMR in normal weight and overweight children, adolescents and adults.
