Optimal Fat Burning Test (VO2)

The optimal fat burning test determines oxygen consumption and CO2 output during exercise. This information can be used to guide you to exercise more efficiently and burn more fat without damaging your muscle.

Optimal Fat Burning Test (VO2)
Are you doing cardio as an endurance athlete or to burn fat? With the VO2 we can help you to understand the importance of knowing what heart rate zones to train in to achieve your goals without over training and damaging muscle.
MAXIMIZE THE AMOUNT
OF FAT YOU BURN

Optimal Fat Burn will pinpoint your aerobic and anaerobic thresholds which will reveal the exercise level that will optimize your ability to burn fat. The term “aerobic exercise” has been commonly used in relation to burning fat. But without VO2 Testing, fitness professionals have had to rely on crude estimates to determine what level of exercise intensity would be “aerobic” or fat burning.

Now, with VO2 Testing readily available, you will know where to keep your heart rate at to truly maximize the amount of fat you burn. The analysis will also show when your body transitions from burning fats to burning carbohydrates.

Frequently we push ourselves thinking, “no pain, no gain.” The truth is, pushing beyond one’s optimal zone leads to fatigue and discomfort. It will also cause increased soreness after the workout and may contribute to exercise-related injury. When you know your zones and use them for training, cardiovascular exercise is comfortable and effective. Even a beginner can go the distance.
