What’s Involved in Metabolic Testing?

Our metabolic testing process in South Yarra evaluates how efficiently your body processes energy during physical activity. Here's what to expect:

  • Initial Setup: Choose between a treadmill, bike (compatible with smart trainers) or rowing ergometer. If you have sport-specific equipment, you can bring it to our lab.

  • Testing Protocol: Testing begins at a low intensity, gradually increasing 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 intensity markers.

  • Results and Consultation: Get actionable insights along with an Excel template to create your personalised race-day nutrition plan.

  • Optional Add-On: Opt for a body composition scan (+$50) for accurate glycogen storage data to optimise pre-race preparations.

Preparation Tips for Your Test

  • Wear comfortable exercise clothing and appropriate footwear.

  • Bring a towel and a water bottle.

  • Stay hydrated and rest well before the test.

  • Avoid intense workouts 24 hours before your session.
