VO2 Max Testing | Metabolic Testing

Track fat vs. carb burn

Learn exactly when your body switches between burning fat and carbohydrates, and how well it uses each. This shows whether your body is relying too much on quick energy from carbs or using fat efficiently for fuel.

Measure VO₂ Max and biological age

VO₂ Max tells you how much oxygen your body can use during exercise. Combined with your metabolic age, you can see how your body compares to what is typical for your age group, giving you a clearer picture of long-term wellness.

Detect early metabolic issues

Spot hidden inefficiencies, such as difficulty burning fat or using oxygen, before they become bigger health problems. This gives you an early warning sign to adjust habits and protect your health.

Set precise calorie needs

Find out your true resting metabolic rate (RMR), or how many calories your body burns at rest. This helps you build an accurate nutrition plan instead of guessing or relying on calculators.

Optimize workout intensity

Get personalized heart rate zones and fat-burning thresholds so you know the exact intensity where your body performs best. This helps you train smarter, not harder.

Personalize nutrition plans

See how your body actually uses food for energy. With this data, you know the right balance of protein, carbs, and fats to fuel your workouts, recovery, and daily life.

Boost endurance and recovery

Understand how your heart, lungs, and muscles work together during exercise so you can improve stamina, avoid burnout, and recover faster.

Support long-term health goals

Track progress over time, prevent plateaus, and make steady improvements. This helps you build habits that support weight management, fitness, and longevity.

How does this work?

Metabolic testing is performed using a clinical-grade breath analysis device that measures how efficiently your body uses energy. A session typically lasts about an hour and includes two parts:

Resting Assessment (20 minutes): While you relax sitting or lying down, the device measures how your body uses energy at rest. It shows how many calories you burn, how well you recover, and the mix of protein, carbs, and fats that work best for you. This helps you skip crash diets and focus on a healthy, sustainable routine.

Active Assessment (20 to 30 minutes): During a workout, you breathe into the device while it measures how your body uses energy in real time. It shows how efficiently you exercise, how much energy comes from fat versus carbs, and your overall fitness level, giving you a clear picture of how your body performs.

You can choose to do only the resting assessment, but every active assessment automatically includes the resting portion.

Within 24 hours, you’ll receive a personalized report. Our Wellness Coordinator will review your results with you and help you apply the insights to your fitness, nutrition, and lifestyle goals.
