For any serious cyclist or triathlete
having your performance tested is essential if you want
to reach peak performance.
We use a state of the art electronically
braked ergometer to control the power output throughout
and the best equipment available to ensure the highest
research quality standards.
The test starts at low intensity and
builds the power continuously until your body reaches
physiological exhaustion. During the test heart rate,
oxygen uptake and blood lactate are all measured to give
us the full picture of your individual physiology which
helps you understand your fitness status, plan training
more effectively, set heart rate and power training
zones and monitor improvements.
All tests are accompanied with blood
measures of haemoglobin and haematocrit with the option
to also have your body fat and muscle mass assessed.
