Physiological Testing Packages

Complete Endurance Package

For triathletes, cyclists, and runners of all levels, this is a comprehensive physiological profile that will help you understand and identify your strengths and weaknesses. Ask us about re-testing offers.

Price £295
Duration

Approximately 150 minutes

Tests
  •  Body composition assessment
  •  Lower limb explosive power, reactivity, and strength assessment
  •  Lactate threshold and VO2 Max (for cyclists - both available on turbo trainer)
Data obtained

Body composition assessment:

  • Body fat %
  • Sum of skinfolds

 Lower limb explosive power, reactivity, and strength assessment:

  • Jump height, force output, eccentric utilisation ratio, dynamic strength index (ratio between power and strength)
  • Reactive strength index - (stronger, more reactive foot/ankle complex = more efficient running)
  • Asymmetry assessment - identify weakness and instability
  • Maximal strength

Lactate threshold and VO₂ Max:

  • Detailed lactate profile, identifying LT1 and LT2
  • Heart rate training zones
  • Running economy (if test is completed on a treadmill) - VO₂ cost of exercise at sub-maximal intensities
  • VO₂ Max (mL/kg/min and L/min)
  • Max heart rate

Following the testing we will send you a detailed report. Within the report, we include information about each test and its relevance to your performance, individual data analysis and interpretation, comparison of values with normative data and elite athletes, recommendations for training, as well as specific heart rate training zones.

Complete Sport Package

For anyone competing in an individual or team sport, this package analyses every physical aspect of your game and identifies any strengths and weaknesses, enabling us to provide accurate training recommendations that will take you to the next level.

Price £265
Duration

Approximately 150 minutes

Tests

We will choose from a battery of physiological tests specific to your sport: 

  • Body composition - (Skinfold Caliper Assessment)
  • Lower limb explosive power:
    • Vertical power projection
    • Horizontal power projection
    • Asymmetry analysis
  • Maximal strength - (Force Plates)
  • Upper body and shoulder strength/stability (ASH Test)
  • Speed - (10m Sprint)
  • Agility - (5-0-5 Change of Direction Test)
  • Anaerobic Capacity - (6s Peak Power Test)
  • Aerobic Capacity and VO₂ Max estimation - (Maximum Minute Power Test)

All data is displayed within a detailed physiological report received following the test.

Also included

Following the testing, we will also offer you 50% off your first month on our Elevate Programme, where, guided by the testing results we will work closely with you to maximise your performance. 

This offer must be redeemed within 30 days following the date of your test.

Complete Force Plate Package

A comprehensive assessment of force, power production, and neuromuscular control through a variety of movements, measured using state-of-the-art force plates (Vald ForceDecks).

Price £195
Duration
