Apply for a free fitness assessment

We offer free fitness assessments at some of our sports centres, for both members and non-members. Find out what your metabolic age is!

Metabolic age testing

Metabolic age testing isn’t a medical based exam and results are completely fitness based, as it compares the individual’s basic metabolic rate against their actual age. If higher it highlights that the individual would benefit from reducing body fat and increasing muscle mass as these two components directly increase basic metabolic rate.

What the fitness assessment involves

As part of the fitness assessment the fitness instructor will conduct the following tests:

  • Weight, fat% and visceral fats
  • Resting heart rate
  • Blood pressure
  • Vo2 max test (three-minute step test)
  • Shoulder mobility
  • Posterior chain mobility
  • Ankle mobility
  • Overhead squat

How to apply
