Maximise your athletic potential

This test will assess your cardiorespiratory fitness, which is the gold standard measurement in assessing fitness. Upon completion of the test specific heart rate training zones can be established in order to highly individualise training prescription. This will better inform your training intensities and allow you to train more precisely.

The test can be performed on both treadmill or cycle. It is an incremental test, starting at a slow speed and gradually increases in intensity until exhaustion.

Blood Lactate Profile

This test will establish an individual's lactate profile. Lactate accumulates in the blood in response to increasing work intensity and is the most important marker in endurance performance. This threshold identifies the highest work intensity (speed or power output) that can be maintained for long periods of time.

The test can be performed on both treadmill or cycle. It is an incremental test, starting at a slow speed and gradually increases in intensity until exhaustion. At each increment of intensity, a finger blood sample is taken and analysed. This is a sub-maximal test meaning that the individual does not need to continue until close to exhaustion.

Athlete Testing

This testing package will combine both a VO2 max test and a lactate profile as well as a Functional Movement  Screen, body composition assessment and a sport-specific power test. This is for the individual serious about taking their training to the next level and gaining a deeper understanding of their own physiology in order to highly individualise their training program.
