Understand how many calories your body needs at rest.

A Resting Metabolic Rate test measures the amount of energy your body uses while at rest to support essential functions such as breathing, circulation, and maintaining body temperature. Your results can help provide a more individualized starting point for nutrition, calorie intake, and healthy weight-management goals.

Great for:
Weight management • Nutrition planning • Personalized fitness programs

Measure your body’s ability to use oxygen during exercise.

A direct VO₂ max test measures how efficiently your body takes in, transports, and uses oxygen as exercise intensity increases. This provides an individualized measure of aerobic capacity and can help establish appropriate training intensities and track changes in cardiovascular fitness over time.

Great for:
Endurance athletes • Fitness enthusiasts • Cardiovascular conditioning • Performance tracking

Estimate aerobic capacity through exercise performance.

An indirect VO₂ max assessment estimates your aerobic fitness using exercise performance and physiological responses rather than directly measuring oxygen consumption. It can provide a useful snapshot of cardiovascular fitness and help guide an individual’s exercise program.

Great for:
General fitness • Exercise programming • Fitness assessments • Progress tracking

Discover the intensity levels that are right for you.

Lactate threshold testing helps identify the point at which your body begins accumulating lactate at a faster rate during exercise. When combined with heart-rate data, the assessment can help establish personalized training zones so you can better understand when you’re exercising at an easy, moderate, or higher intensity.

Great for:
Endurance training • Running • Cycling • Performance improvement • Personalized training

A comprehensive look at cardiovascular fitness and training intensity.

Combine VO₂ max testing with lactate threshold and heart-rate zone analysis for a more complete picture of your cardiovascular performance. This comprehensive assessment can help establish individualized training targets and provide measurable benchmarks for future fitness progress.

See beyond the number on the scale.

Body composition testing provides information about the makeup of your body, while blood pressure offers an important snapshot of cardiovascular health. Together, these measurements can help establish a baseline and provide useful information for developing personalized health and fitness goals.

Combine key measurements for a more complete wellness snapshot.

This assessment brings together body composition, resting metabolic rate, and blood pressure to provide a broader look at your current health and metabolic profile. The results can help support more individualized nutrition, weight-management, and fitness recommendations.
