Abstract

The energy needed for our body to function at rest, while doing nothing, is called basal metabolic rate or BMR. It is the energy needed for our heart, brain, kidneys and other organs to operate and keep us alive. Basal metabolic rate depends on our sex, age, weight and height. The present study was conducted in 30female adult subjects to explore relation between physical fitness using treadmill in relation to basal metabolic rate and the results revealed that no significant correlation and regression observed between load test and BMR, significant correlation was found in between BMR and total energy expenditure, Hb level and highly significant correlation was found in between BMI and BMR.
