VO2 Metabolic Assessment
"Lose weight by learning about your metabolism and what you can do to trim inches and pounds."
With a simple exercise assessment, the New Leaf Personal Exercise Program can determine your unique metabolic profile - your body's precise response to exercise. Using these metabolic markers, you will know exactly the intensity level you should exercise at to achieve your goal, whether it's shedding pounds or dropping minutes from a 10K.
The New Leaf VO2 Assessment removes the guesswork that defeats most exercise and diet programs. It's an effective approach to improved fitness and performance. A metabolic assessment analyzes the volume of oxygen consumed (VO2) and the volume of carbon dioxide produced (VCO2) in a controlled setting to determine the type of fuels your body is using, or your "metabolic profile".
An exercise metabolic assessment measures the VO2 and VCO2 along with your heart rate during exercise with a gradual increase in intensity until you reach a point sufficient to collect the desired exercise "metabolic profile". Data such as heart rate, oxygen consumed (VO2 Max), and Anaerobic Threshold (AT) are determined and these are used to develop training program for you. Target heart rates are scientifically determined by your metabolic profile during exercise and can be incorporated into a fitness performance and/or weight loss training program by your BeFitLifestyle exercise professional.
