VO2 Max

VO2 Max – We use online gas analysis during physiology testing to analyse your exhaled breath. The composition of the air you exhale changes depending on the bodies exercise state and fitness level so gas analysis data provides a very accurate scientific marker for this.

Anaerobic Threshold (AT)

Lactate Levels – Most of us have come across the term lactic acid build up but don’t really know the implications this has regarding our exercise. We measure blood lactate levels using state of the art professional level lactate analysers during testing to determine your lactate threshold, a widely accepted marker for fitness level.

Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)

Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) – The amount of energy required only to support vital bodily functions, which would be expended with zero exercise or physical movement, therefore this has huge implications when assessing ones dietry needs.

Cholesterol / Triglycerides

Cholesterol – We are constantly being reminded to watch our cholesterol. We measure your cholesterol levels using the latest highly accurate cholesterol testing equipment. We then tell you how and why to keep your cholesterol within the advised range.

Triglyceride Levels – High levels of this type of fat has similar implications to that of cholesterol and new research suggests it may be as important to monitor.

Lung Function

Lung Function  – Using spirometry we analyse various parameters relating to the performance of your lungs, as this is directly related to fitness level.

Body Composition

Body Composition – Using both advanced electrode techniques together with traditional skin-fold calliper measurements we gain an extremely accurate overall measure of your body’s lean muscle and fat content.

Blood Pressure and Resting Heart Rate

Blood Pressure – We all know how important keeping blood pressure within the required range is. We tell you how and why

Heart Rate - measured rest and during exercise give a clear indication of physiological condition, but its how the heart rate data is analysed and interpreted that’s important.

Blood Glucose

Glucose Levels – Important to monitor this as a predictor for diabetes and its associated complications. Much more important for those with a history of diabetes in the family
