Our tests
Two tests. Total clarity.
Take a single test, or the September Package: both tests in one session and an 8-week training programme built from your results.
Resting Metabolic Rate
Understand exactly how many calories your body burns at rest, and what that means for your weight, energy and long-term health.
- True caloric needs for any goal
- Metabolic dysfunction risk score
- Fat burning efficiency at rest
- Heart rate variability (HRV)
- Lung utilisation at rest
September Package
Both tests in one session, then an 8-week training programme written from what they measure.

What people are saying.
“I'd been training for an Ironman on guesswork. The VO₂ test showed my zones were completely off. I was going too hard on easy days and not hard enough on intervals. Fixed that and knocked 14 minutes off my half-iron time.”
“I was eating 1,400 calories thinking that's what I needed to lose weight. The RMR test showed my metabolism was actually burning way more than that. I'm eating more now and finally dropping body fat. Wish I'd done this years ago.”
“Ran my first sub-40 10K after adjusting my training zones from the test. The report was dead clear, no confusing graphs, just 'here's what to do.' James was brilliant at explaining everything too.”
“Not a competitive athlete at all, I just wanted to understand why I was always tired by 2pm. Turns out I was barely burning any fat at rest. Changed my nutrition off the back of the results and my energy is so much better.”
What happens next
A plan, not just data.
Every score comes with specific recommendations across exercise, nutrition and lifestyle, so you know exactly what to do next.
Exercise
Strength work builds muscle mass, increasing oxygen uptake and metabolic rate, which directly improves your test scores over time.
Zone 4–5 work improves heart function and lung capacity, pushing your VO₂ Max higher with every block.
Low-intensity aerobic work trains your cells to absorb and utilise oxygen more efficiently across the whole body.
Nutrition
Foods rich in nitrates dilate blood vessels, boosting oxygen delivery to working muscles during exercise.
Adequate heme-iron supports healthy haemoglobin and red blood cell production, essential for oxygen transport.
Knowing your RMR means your nutrition plan is built on real data, not generic calculators that miss by 300+ calories.
Lifestyle
Completing high-intensity work in the afternoon aligns with your natural cortisol curve for better output and recovery.
7–8 hours of quality sleep directly improves physical recovery and raises your VO₂ Max ceiling over time.
Reducing body fat by just 5% can meaningfully improve your VO₂ Max, and your test tells you exactly how to get there.
