INTELLIGENT TRAINER

_{We all have different metabolisms, and we all burn our energy stores at different rates, we should not be fooled by Resting Metabolic Rate calculations used by many diet plans to claim weight loss as these formulas often imply that all individuals are of the same gender, age, height and weight and lean body mass will significantly influence RMR.}

_{Your RMR is the largest single component of your Total Energy Expenditure (TEE) and will provide information on your fuel burning efficiency, the fuel sources your body uses during daily activities and accurate information on your Metabolic Health.}

_{How do we test? We use the latest portable Breath Analysis Device technology from PNOÉ. The equipment consists of a small portable mask and backpack which is worn for a specified period producing accurate and comprehensive data sets on Metabolic health.}

_{This non-evasive method, Indirect Calormetry (IC) accurately calculates Energy expenditure through the measurement of respiratory gas exchange (oxygen consumed and carbon dioxide produced), occurring at the mouth through the face mask attached to the user, no predictions are made.}

_{The test protocols produce a hyper-personalised metabolic analysis report detailing data for 9 specific areas, identifying your heart lungs or muscles are the key limiting factor to your performance. Fitness testing results produce the most accurate heart rate Zoning for training and identify exactly the type of training that fits with your metabolic profile.}

_{We offer a resting Metabolic Test and various Fitness Test protocols, including VO2 Max and Fat Max results designed for general fitness, weight management and sport specific testing.}

_{It is recommended that you book both the Resting Metabolic Test and a fitness test to get a full and complete picture of your health and fitness.}

_{The Resting Metabolic Rate Assessment test takes approximately 10 minutes, in total a maximum of 1 hour should be allowed as there are strict protocols that should be followed prior to test day for the test to be accurate. These include not eating for at least 5 hours prior to testing, no prolonged, intense exercise and no consumption of stimulating drinks. (Please contact for further detail).}

_{The Fitness Tests are bespoke protocols based on Ramp Testing. these protocols are designed for all types of athletes and sports people to individuals who wish to start out on a weight reduction programme. These tests span the use of Treadmills, Assault Bikes, Indoor Rowing machines, step Boxes, Bleep Test and standard racing bikes using bike turbo trainers. Fitness tests can be measured in Watts or by Speed}

_{Fitness tests take approximately 50 minutes, however it is recommended that you allow 2 hours if both the RMR and a Fitness Test has been booked.}

_{As a further option, we offer a hyper-personalised Metabolic Nutrition Plan and programme based on your metabolic rate and fitness goals. These programmes are designed by highly qualified nutrition experts and are managed through an App. You will receive daily meal plans, with recipes designed around your eating preferences and food allergy restrictions. You will be offered smart Alternatives and the programme auto-regulates with workouts. It also allows for 'cheat-meals' and integrates with all fitness trackers.}

_{Medical standard sanitation procedures are carried out on the equipment prior to each test. Equipment filtration is changed for each client. Testing is currently restricted under government lock-down laws however outdoor testing can be performed on a one-to-one basis for certain test criterion.}

_{Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions regarding the sanitisation process or testing procedures.}
