If you are training for an event such as a ½ or full marathon, 5 or 10k or just running for fun the HumanLab Metabolic assessment can help you in the following ways.

The assessment will tell you the heart rate where you reach your anaerobic threshold.It will tell you all about your Aerobic base, how wide your base is and how aerobically efficient you are. The exact amount of calories you need to consume to fuel up for your training and event.

With this information we will be able to prescribe training programs to get real results.

With this valuable information and correct training regime your body will make adaptations which will improve your aerobic capacity and efficiency, help move your anaerobic threshold higher, train your body to burn fat as a preferred fuel.

As your heart rate training zones move higher you will notice how your times improve, how much stronger you feel, how training becomes less stressful & challenging, how your body composition improves.

Many runners start a race at to quick a pace working anaerobicly, knowing your threshold and having a efficient aerobic base allows you to run at a sustainable pace and prevents fatigue in the latter stages of the race or training session.

If too much of your training is spent at or above your threshold you may find your fitness level plateau’s or may even decrease, the metabolic assessment will help you prevent the negative effects of over training.

Without the HumanLab metabolic assessment all your heart rate monitor shows are numbers. Make those numbers have meaning, book your assessment today.
