Maximal Aerobic Capacity
(VO2 Max)

Price: $110excl. GST

What is it?

VO2 max refers to the maximum amount of oxygen that an individual can utilise during intense or maximal exercise. This measurement is generally considered the best indicator of an athlete's cardiovascular fitness and aerobic endurance.

How is it useful?

VO2 max can determine an athlete's capacity to perform sustained exercise and is linked to aerobic endurance. The data can be used to give individualised training zones, monitor progress of training and assess areas of concern.

What will you receive?

This service offers the client an individualised report outlining the assessment findings.

Wingate Test

Price: $60excl. GST

What is it?

The Wingate test is an anaerobic test performed on a cycle ergometer that is used to measure peak anaerobic power, as well as anaerobic capacity and fatigue index.

How is it useful?

The Wingate test is believed to show two things: all-out peak anaerobic power and anaerobic capacity. These two values have been reported as important factors in sports with quick, all-out efforts. Short sprinting events rely heavily upon the anaerobic energy pathways during execution which leads to the theories that greater performance in a Wingate test can predict success in these events.

What will you receive?

This service offers the client an individualised report outlining the assessment findings and recommendations for improving anaerobic power.

Lactate Threshold Test

Price: $110excl. GST

What is it?

Your lactate profile is a reliable predictor of performance in aerobic exercise. The body produces a performance-limiting substance called lactate during exercise. The lactate profile test determines the level of exercise intensity at which the body begins to produce this substance at a greater rate than it can be removed.

How is it useful?

The lactate threshold is a useful measure for deciding exercise intensity for training and racing in endurance sports, evaluating the effects of training and to predict performance.

What will you receive?

This service offers the client an individualised report outlining the assessment findings, individualised training intensities and heart rate zones and areas of improvement.
