Measure first.
Upgrade with purpose.
Before choosing a service, establish what your body is doing now. Testing turns oxygen use, metabolic demand and body composition into a baseline you can act on—and measure again.
No generic scorecard. No technology selected because it sounds advanced. We begin with the question, choose the assessment that can answer it and use the result to guide what comes next.

Why Testing Comes First
A service is only useful when it matches the objective.
Wearables, calculators and symptoms can suggest where to look. They cannot fully show how effectively you use oxygen under effort, where your intensity transitions occur, what your body requires at rest or how muscle and fat are distributed.
Testing makes those differences visible. It provides the reference point for choosing a service, structuring a Performance Program or simply understanding what deserves attention first.
Testing is not a contest and the highest number is not always the only objective. The value is establishing a defensible baseline, interpreting it in context and deciding what the data should change.
Testing Services
Five assessments. Different questions.
You do not need every test automatically. Each assessment has a specific role, and the right combination depends on what you want to understand or improve.
Cardiorespiratory Capacity
VO₂ Max Testing
Directly measure maximal oxygen use and identify respiratory transitions that can inform individualized training zones.
Explore VO₂ Max →Intensity + ThresholdsLactate Testing
Build a staged blood-lactate profile and connect metabolic transitions to heart rate, pace, power or workload.
Explore Lactate Testing →Resting EnergyResting Metabolic Rate
Measure baseline energy expenditure and resting fuel utilization rather than relying solely on a predictive equation.
Explore RMR →Integrated Metabolic AnalysisPNOĒ
Translate breath-by-breath respiratory data into a broader view of energy use, metabolism and exercise response.
Explore PNOĒ →Body CompositionInBody Scan
Look beyond scale weight to measure muscle, body fat, visceral fat estimates and segmental composition.
Explore InBody →What Are You Measuring?
Build the baseline around the question.
Each testing domain reveals something the others cannot. Together, selected assessments can create a more complete picture without collecting data for its own sake.
How do you produce and use energy?
Examine resting demand, respiratory exchange and fuel utilization under the selected protocol.
- Resting Metabolic Rate
- PNOĒ Metabolic Analysis
What is the scale not showing?
Establish muscle and fat distribution as a practical baseline for body-composition goals.
- InBody Composition Scan
- Segmental comparison over time
The Testing Framework
Measure. Match. Re-measure.
Data earns its place when it changes a decision. Our framework connects the assessment to a practical next step and creates a defined way to evaluate the response.
Measure the baseline
Select the assessment that answers the question and collect the data under a consistent, appropriate protocol.
Match the direction
Interpret the result with your goals, current capacity and relevant history to guide the next service or program.
Re-measure the response
Repeat the relevant measure after enough time has passed to determine whether a meaningful change occurred.
Choose Your Starting Route
One test—or a connected performance baseline.
The right entry point depends on whether you need one answer or a structured program that connects several measurements to a larger objective.
Answer a specific question
Choose an individual test when you already know the metric you need—such as body composition, resting metabolism, VO₂ Max or lactate thresholds.
Schedule Testing →Connect the measurements
Use the Performance Program when you want relevant testing brought together, interpreted and translated into a structured direction for conditioning and measurable progression.

Before you measure.
Do I need to complete all five tests?
No. Testing should be selected according to the question you want to answer. Some people need one assessment; others benefit from a combined baseline through the Performance Program.
Where should I start if I am unsure?
Start with your goal rather than a device or metric. Tell us what you want to improve, and we will help identify which assessment provides the most useful starting information.
Are these tests only for athletes?
No. Testing can support athletes, recreational exercisers and adults focused on longevity, metabolic efficiency or body composition. The protocol and interpretation should match your current ability.
Can my wearable provide the same information?
Wearables are useful for trends but often estimate metrics through algorithms. Several of our assessments directly measure respiratory gases, blood lactate or body composition under standardized conditions. The two sources can complement each other, but they are not interchangeable.
How often should I retest?
The interval depends on the metric, your objective and the changes being made. Retesting should occur after enough time has passed for a meaningful response to be detectable, using a comparable protocol whenever possible.
Will testing diagnose a medical condition?
No. These services provide fitness, metabolic and body-composition assessments. They are not diagnostic medical tests and do not replace evaluation by an appropriate healthcare professional.
Testing services are assessments for wellness, fitness and performance planning. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease. Participation and protocol selection are subject to appropriate screening. Measurements have method-specific limitations, and individual results vary.
