Source text - English Adult men (70 kg) have a BMR of about 7500 kJ (1800 kcal) and women about 5400 kJ (1300 kcal) per day; the BMR may vary by a factor of two between individuals, depending on age, sex, body mass and composition. Heat production by mitochondria accounts for the largest portion of the BMR. The BMR is measured under controlled conditions: after an 8-hour sleep, in the reclining position, in the postabsorptive state, typically after a 12-hour fast.
Another measure often used is the RMR, or resting metabolic rate, which is virtually the same as the BMR but measured under less restrictive conditions. The RMR is a measure of minimum energy expenditure at rest; it is typically about 70% of total daily energy expenditure. Exercise scientists frequently use the term MET, Metabolically Equivalent Task, as a measure of energy expenditure at rest. Slow to vigorous walking is a 2–4 MET/h activity; vigorous running on a treadmill may consume more than 15 MET/h.
Translation - Italian Il BMR giornaliero di un uomo adulto (70 kg) è di circa 7500 kJ (1800 kcal), quello di una donna si aggira intorno a 5400 kJ (1300 kcal). Il BMR può variare di un fattore due tra individui diversi, in relazione all'età, al sesso, alla massa e alla composizione corporea. Il calore prodotto dai mitocondri rappresenta la porzione maggiore del BMR. Il BMR viene misurato in condizioni controllate: dopo 8 ore di sonno ininterrotto, in posizione reclinata e in stato di post assorbimento, di solito dopo 12 ore di digiuno.
Viene spesso impiegata anche un'altra misura: il RMR (resting metabolic rate), o ritmo metabolico a riposo, equivalente del BMR ma calcolato in condizioni meno restrittive. Il RMR misura il dispendio energetico minimo in condizioni di riposo e costituisce circa il 70% del dispendio energetico giornaliero. In ambito motorio-sportivo, i ricercatori impiegano frequentemente il termine MET (Metabolically Equivalent Task), equivalente metabolico, come unità di misura del dispendio energetico in condizioni di riposo. Una camminata, con un passo da lento a svelto, è un'attività da 2-4 MET/h, una corsa vigorosa sul tapis roulant può consumare più di 15 MET/h.
