Exercise Physiology Testing

Scientific assessment of exercise capacity:

• Measures physiological responses to exercise
• VO₂ max, lactate threshold, metabolic efficiency
• Training zone determination
• Performance optimization
• Evidence-based approach to fitness

VO₂ Max Testing: Maximum aerobic capacity

Lactate Threshold: Tempo pace and threshold power

Running Economy: Oxygen cost at different paces

RMR Testing: Resting metabolic rate for nutrition

Competitive Athletes: Optimize training and performance

Recreational Athletes: Train smarter, prevent overtraining

Health & Fitness: Baseline assessment, progress tracking

Clinical Populations: Safe exercise prescription

Exercise physiology testing eliminates guesswork:

• Know exact training zones
• Individualized to your physiology
• Track improvements objectively
• Optimize training efficiency

How often to retest:

• Baseline: Establish initial fitness
• 3-6 Months: Track training adaptations
• Pre-Season: Annual assessment for athletes
• After Major Changes: New training program, weight loss, injury recovery

Professional testing environment:

• Korr CardioCoach metabolic analyzer
• Multiple equipment options (treadmill, bike, rower, stair mill)
• Private, one-on-one testing
• Detailed results and training guidance

VO₂ Max Test: $250

RMR Test: $75

Performance Pack (Both): $300
