What’s Involved in Metabolic Testing?

Our metabolic testing process in Fitzroy is designed to provide actionable insights into your body's energy systems. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Initial Setup: Choose from treadmill, bike (compatible with smart trainers) or rowing ergometer testing options. If you have specific sports equipment, feel free to bring it to our lab.

  • Testing Protocol: Start with a low-intensity workout that gradually increases every 5 minutes until you reach your lactate threshold (~85% max heart rate).

  • Data Collection: We measure fat and carbohydrate usage, lactate levels and key performance markers.

  • Results and Consultation: Receive personalised recommendations and an Excel template to build your race-day nutrition plan.

  • Optional Add-On: Opt for a body composition scan (+$50) to refine glycogen data for optimal pre-race preparation.

Preparation Tips for Your Test

  • Wear comfortable activewear and proper running shoes.

  • Bring a towel and a water bottle for hydration.
