Using a highly accurate InBody 270 body composition analyzer, we will measure your weight, dry lean mass, lean body mass, skeletal muscle mass, total body water, body mass index, percent body fat, basal metabolic rate, body segmented mass, and skeletal muscle mass history. Time required: 5-10 minutes 

How to prepare:

For the most accurate results follow these preparation guidelines:

  • Do not eat for 3-4 hours before testing
  • Do not exercise for 6-12 hours before testing
  • Wear footwear and socks that are easily removed
  • Do not drink caffeine on the test day and be well hydrated
  • Do not shower or use a sauna immediately before the test
  • Avoid putting lotion on hands and feet before testing
  • Individuals with pacemakers or other electronic devices should not use the InBody
  • For women, avoid testing if you are pregnant or menstruating

This maximal exercise test determines your rate of oxygen consumption, training heart rate zones, and ventilatory threshold. VO2 Max is a gold standard for individuals who truly desire specific heart rate training information to improve health, wellness, and performance. Time required: 45-60 minutes
