Metabolic testing
Different types of tests are available to optimize your health, fitness, or athletic performance. VO2 Max testing and Resting Metabolic Rate testing are two popular options for assessing how your body functions. While both provide valuable insights into how your body uses energy, they focus on different aspects of your metabolism.
VO2 Max Testing:
The primary focus of VO2 max testing is to assess cardiovascular endurance and how efficiently your body uses oxygen during exercise. This test is a critical tool for measuring aerobic capacity and is widely regarded as the gold standard for assessing endurance performance, especially in athletes. It gives a clear picture of your heart and lung health under physical stress and provides insight into your ability to sustain prolonged physical activity. This test is the most comprehensive results driven service, sharing outcomes that allow you to fully understand where you are and how to reach your goals. A VO2 Max test takes about 12 minutes to complete and can be done on a variety of equipment such as a treadmill, rowing machine, stationary bike.
Resting Metabolic Rate Testing:
Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) is the amount of energy expended by the body while at rest in a neutrally temperate environment, in the post-absorptive state (Prior to the test, refrain from consuming any food or beverages, with the exception of water, for preferably 14 hours). Knowing your RMR can be valuable for various reasons, such as designing personalized nutrition and exercise plans, weight management, and understanding overall metabolic health.
