V̇O₂max & Lactate Threshold Testing
Testing options:
Full Comprehensive Cardiorespiratory
& Metabolic Performance Test: $300
Learn your complete physiological profile — including your VO₂max, lactate thresholds, VLamax, and exercise economy — to better understand your aerobic capacity, metabolic efficiency, respiratory control, and performance across low-, moderate-, and high-intensity exercise.
This test includes:
VO₂max testing
Quantifies maximal aerobic capacity and overall endurance ceilingLactate threshold profiling (LT1 & LT2)
Identifies key metabolic transition points used to establish accurate training zones and sustainable intensity ranges.VLamax
Estimates maximal lactate production rate, providing insight into glycolytic contribution and intensity tolerance.Exercise economy (running or cycling)
Evaluates how efficiently you convert energy into speed at submaximal intensities.Substrate utilization & caloric expenditure
Assesses relative carbohydrate vs fat use and energy cost across intensities to inform fueling and pacing strategies.Individualized heart rate training zones
Zones derived from physiological thresholds rather than age-based formulas.Database comparison
Compare your results to our local test database of 300+ individuals, spanning ages 14–84 and VO₂max values from 23–87 mL/kg/min, to provide meaningful performance context.Training recommendations
Training guidance based on your physiological profile, metabolic characteristics, and primary performance limiters.
V̇O₂max: $200
Measures VO₂max and respiratory/metabolic responses to exercise. Provides data on caloric expenditure (kcal/hr), exercise economy, and respiratory function.
Lactate Threshold: $200
Used to track/track progress compared to initial testing. Reveals insight into metabolic efficiency & athlete subtype (fast twitch or slow twitch dominant). Useful for follow-up testing and monitoring training adaptations.
