METABOLIC TESTING
THE ULTIMATE PHYSIOLOGICAL METABOLIC PROFILE
Our most popular & premium service is a scientific approach that helps identify your complete performance profile, combining our Lactate Threshold, VO2max, Sweat Heat Capacity & Resting Metabolic Rate testing all in one. Norway swept the Ironman World Championships 2025 (male and female). Cycling teams like UAE Team Emirates and Team Jumbo-Visma have dominated the Grand Tours. And elite runners like Jacob Ingebrigtsen, Eliud Kipchoge, Killian Jornet & more have dominated various distances. Their secret? They all plan their training informed by physiological metabolic testing.
​
What you learn
Your Resting Metabolic Rate (calories you need), your lactate profile, and your VO2max to determine your specific training zones. You also learn your sweat rate, sodium loss & fuel needs (carbs/calories replacement) at various intensities for your unique fueling plan. You'll learn your race performance potential, the type of training that will yield substantial gains, and more!
Includes: Testing, detailed report with training zones, fueling plan (carbs, fluids, and sodium intake), daily caloric needs (protein, carbs, and fat intake), training recommendations (i.e., polarized, pyramidal, etc.), & FREE 30-min Zoom call follow-up consultation for you (and your coach if applicable)

SWEAT & HEAT CAPACITY TESTING
Roughly 80% of the energy your body uses is lost to heat. This test helps measure your current heat tolerance and the rate of sweat/sodium loss during exercise.
​
What you learn
Your heat training zones are required to safely adapt & improve your performance racing in hot conditions. Your hourly sweat rate and sodium loss, for a personalized hydration and electrolyte replenishment strategy
​
Includes: Testing, Report with heat-training zones, and a hydration and electrolyte replenishment plan.

LACTATE PROFILE
This service helps determine your Lactate Thresholds and your personalized training zones.​
​
What you learn
Your specific inflection points determine your first and second thresholds, which provide your personalized training zones. These are critical markers for endurance performance, as they determine the sustainable intensities for various race distances
​
Includes: Test & Report with power/pace training zones​

VO2MAX TESTING
This service helps identify the maximum volume of oxygen (VO2max) your body can utilize during exercise. A key marker for both performance and health, as it's a strong predictor of longevity and health outcomes.
​
What you learn
Your VO2max and ventilatory thresholds (VT1/VT2) are critical markers of endurance performance, as they determine the maximum sustainable intensities you can maintain across various race distances. You will also learn your economy/efficiency, & ventilatory profile.
​
Includes: Testing, Report with power/pace training zones​

RESTING METABOLIC RATE TESTING
Metabolic rate is a measure of how quickly your body expends energy.
What you learn
The resting metabolic rate assessment measures the number of calories your body burns at rest, providing the data you need to plan a weight loss, weight gain, or daily caloric intake to optimize your training performance and recovery.
​
Includes: Detailed report including Data collected: Resting HR, respiratory exchange ratio (RER), metabolic parameters like calories, carbs (%, grams), fat (%, grams)
