Predicting the resting metabolic rate of young Australian males
Article Abstract:
Research is presented concerning the development of regression equations which would predict the resting metabolic rate of Australian men between the ages of 18 and 30 from their physical characteristics.

Effect of 3 weeks of detraining on the resting metabolic rate and body composition of trained males
Article Abstract:
A study suggest that exercise training does not necessarily lead to a potentiation of the resting metabolic rate (RMR). The study found no link between three weeks of detraining and a decrease in RMR in trained males, disproving the hypothesis that detraining reduces the RMR of long-term exercisers. The relation of RMR with regular exercise has been a popular research subject because of its implications for the regulation of energy balance and body mass.

Resting metabolic rate, body composition and aerobic fitness comparisons between active and sedentary 54-71 year old males
Article Abstract:
There is a considerable resting metabolic rate difference between groups of 54-year-old to 71-year-old male longterm excercisers and longterm nonexercisers when energy expenditure is expressed in relation to body mass. There are no resting metabolic rate differences between these two groups when the data are expressed relative to fat free mass or indexed against fat free mass and body mass corrected for the non-zero intercept when these variables are graphed against resting metabolic rate. This research does not support the view that there are resting metabolic rate differences between male longterm excercisers and longterm nonexercisers in this age group.
