METABOLIC TESTING

We are proud to announce that we are officially using PNOE Metabolic Testing, one of the most advanced and effective biometric labs previously only accessible to professional and elite athletes.

This testing system is the very highest standard of physical fitness and health assessments and data-driven physiology.

The test includes:

V02 Max test:

VO2 max is a measure of how much oxygen your body can utilize per minute during physical activity. VO2 max testing provides valuable information regarding your level of aerobic fitness and helps to identify potential health issues and areas for improvement in physical performance. The test can be done on a stationary bike or a treadmill.

RMR Test:

Resting metabolic rate (RMR) testing is a measure of how many calories your body burns at rest. This test provides important information regarding the amount of energy you expend throughout the day and helps to identify areas for improvement regarding weight management.

Why should I do a Metabolic Test?

Unlock a comprehensive assessment of your health, fitness levels, breathing patterns, training zones, and more. Empowered with this valuable information, we’ll be able to draw up a highly effective and results-driven plan that you can use to train like an athlete to smash your personal bests, lose weight, or increase your physical endurance while lengthening your lifespan.

What You Can Expect

During your PNOE test, we’ll measure and analyse your system vitals to determine the effectiveness of your breathing, your lungs, your heart, and your cells while burning fat or carbohydrates.

Using the insight we gain, we’ll laser-target any weaknesses in your health, nutrition, or fitness and provide you with dietary and personal training advice accordingly.

This is the fastest way to fix your unique challenges as quickly as possible to improve your performance, aid weight loss, and increase your overall health.

The information you can discover includes, but is not limited to:

  • Calories burned
  • Carbohydrates and fat burned
  • V02 Max
  • Metabolic efficiency
  • Heart rate and power
  • Personal training zones
  • Weight Loss

What Are Training Zones and Why Do They Matter?

If you want to learn how to train like an athlete, then you need to understand your body’s training zones. These zones are based on your heart rate and help you determine when and how you burn the most fat, develop the most endurance, and build the most muscle. This means we can ensure you get the most out of your training, whether you are working on increasing your physical activity, weight loss or your general fitness level.

While these zones can usually be determined using wearables like smartwatches or calculator apps, they might not always be 100% accurate. In fact, some of these readings could be off by up to 25%.

With a Metabolic test, you’ll be able to perfectly determine your training zones up to the heartbeat.

How Nutrition Shapes Progress

The Metabolic test helps us determine how your body currently burns carbohydrates and fat, going on to use this information to create a personalised meal plan and nutritional guide that will supplement our personal training advice and weight loss goals.

Improve Your Athletic Performance

You don’t have to be a professional athlete to train like one. Our physiotherapy clinic works with recreational athletes and everyday people who want to implement tailor-made programmes to identify and fix key weaknesses in their performance.

With our support and personal training advice created with the Metabolic system, you’ll be able to train at a pace and power that suits your body, sustains your current energy output, improves your aerobic capacity, increase your muscle mass and reduce muscle fatigue.

This test allows you to tap into world-class resources that were once only available to top athletes and training centres.

Weight Management Programme

You can look and train like an athlete to ramp up your weight loss journey. We’ll provide you with the tools you need to understand exactly how many calories you need to burn and consume during different levels of training intensity if you want to achieve your weight loss goals.

We are fortunate to work with a metabolic nutritionist to understand what a balanced diet looks like for you, based on your resting metabolic rate, muscle mass and physical activity levels.

Increase Your Health And Fitness

Our personal training advice and programmes are built based on your personal physiology, which means that you’ll be able to reach your goals and achieve results in record time.

The test analyses metrics such as aerobic capacity, lactate threshold and VO2 Max, which gives you an insightful look into your current cardiovascular, metabolic, and respiratory health.

You could even detect problems like COPD, diabetes, and valve issues and ensure you get the right treatment and medication as soon as possible.

Whether you are on a weight loss journey, you are looking to improve your athletic performance or you simply wany to know how to get the most out of your training, this test is for you.
