The lab quality Metabolism Testing provided by FRESH! is the “Gold Standard” in scientific metabolism testing. In fact, it is the same technology found in World class physiology labs and medical centers across the world.
These tests are extremely accurate, produce information previously unavailable to the public, and will provide you with tangible knowledge and resources needed to help you reach your goals faster, safer, and more permanently than anything else available. Essentially, the guesswork is taken out of your training plan.
You will have all of the information at your fingertips to reach any health and fitness goal you set for yourself. And, we will provide you the guidelines to ensure you start out on the right foot!
FRESH! is one of the only companies in Calgary to offer this service and the only one which provides the service on a mobile basis. Additionally, we have highly experienced staff and the most comprehensive reporting and post-test consultation system available.
There are 2 types of Metabolism Assessments that FRESH! performs for our clients, the Resting Metabolism and Exercise Metabolism Assessments. Each test provides incredibly valuable information, but not everyone needs to do each test. The test(s) that are right for you and the order you perform them in will depend on a number of factors. Our expert team can help you decide on the path that’s best for you.
Here are some of the questions to help you determine which test is right for you:
- Do you want to lose weight?
- Do you have nutritional challenges to overcome?
- Are there lifestyle habits that sabotage your ability to get results?
- Do you do regular cardiovascular exercise (or do you want to)?
- Are you training for a specific event?
- Do you want to experience the benefits of heart rate training?
The answers to these questions (and more) will determine the best starting point for you and which tests would be best to perform.
