Performance Testing
"Know your engine. Get the data."

Everything starts with a measurement. Before we write a single rep, we find out exactly where you are — so the plan that follows is yours, not a guess.

What we measure

Core tests · a science-backed report & coach debrief on every one

The tests.

  • ii Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) — your true calorie baseline, measured not estimated, for smarter fueling and body composition.
  • iii Athlete Performance Screen — force-plate jump, strength & asymmetry testing plus a full movement battery, scored against norms.

Every test ends with a science-backed report and a coach debrief. Retest to track progress.

Adult Fitness Assessment $99 · Athlete Performance Screen from $299 · Youth & tennis $149–$249 · VO2 Max & RMR — pricing at booking.
