MyVO2 One Size DOES NOT Fit All - so why do we train that way?? We no longer have to use the “one size fits all” method of training and losing weight.
Metabolic Testing which was only available to elite and Olympic athletes and testing that could only be completed in a science lab or University is finally available for everyone. Our New Leaf metabolic assessment and training program is based on decades of medical research and proven scientific know-how. Whether you’re just starting to exercise or you’re training for your next marathon, you can b
oost your metabolism! Using the Harris Benedict Equation (the most common one used), you punch in your age, height, weight as well as your average activity level and out pops an estimated caloric expenditure. This may be a great starting point however these equations are not specific to you and can be +/- 1000 calories. A metabolic assessment can help you chart the fastest course to success. You’ve heard the advice to “work smarter, not harder” time and again. With a metabolic assessment, you’ll finally have a tool that makes that advice meaningful. A training program based on your metabolic assessment and personalized to meet your body’s precise needs will help you spend less time in the gym—and more time enjoying a healthier life. We offer 2 types of test that can be done together or individually:
Resting Metabolic Rate is a test that measures your Oxygen and CO2 levels at complete rest and provides you with an accurate number of calories needed to simply your life. It will also provide the number of calories you require to lose a certain amount of weight or the number of calories required to train for a specific sport or race. Exercise Metabolic Rate is a test that measures your gas levels with your heart rate to provide your accurate heart rate training zones and your most effective fat burning zones. (in terms of how your body burns fuel when it is at rest and when it is exercising) .This is extremely important if you are training to lose weight (burning the fat) or training for race (not burning muscle, lactic acid build-up). This is a mobile unit which can be used in a private studio, large gym or your own home. Initial Metobolic Assessment
