The MetaCheck® is an affordable metabolic analyzer that provides an accurate, professional metabolic rate measurement. Measuring a person’s metabolic rate allows you to construct an effective weight loss plan based on individual caloric needs.

The MetaCheck® is simple to use and maintain, using disposable testing supplies and requiring no additional computer to operate. To download a MetaCheck® product brochure, click here.

MetaCheck® Features

Direct Oxygen Measurement

MetaCheck® directly measures the concentration of oxygen a person breathes out. Each client merely breathes through a simple mouthpiece as all the exhaled air is collected and analyzed. There is a direct correlation between oxygen consumed and calories burned, which make Metacheck® the most accurate measurement of calorie consumption.

Mixing chamber Technology

A mixing chamber is considered the “Gold Standard” for a Metabolic Measurement. For years this system has been complicated and expensive. KORR advancements in technology make this method feasible for health and fitness facilities of any size.

Self Calibrating

For a metabolic test to be accurate, the device must adjust to barometric pressure, temperature, and humidity. The MetaCheck® measures these parameters and makes adjustments during each routine calibration cycle.

Clean

Other Metabolic Analyzers require the clients to breathe through a measurement device located at the mouth. The air each person breathes in will pass through the same mechanism as countless clients before them. The KORR MetaBreather® uses a one-way valve. This draws in fresh room air with each inspiratory breath. After each test, the disposable is thrown away, eliminating the need to clean equipment between clients.

Simple

The MetaCheck® has a simple user interface that guides you from start to finish. No training, certification, computer or software is required. It’s all at your fingertips!

Profitable

MetaCheck® provides an excellent revenue stream for your business.  Most users become profitable within 6 months and add an average of $10,000 per year to their bottom line. To see a sample ROI calculation, click here.
