Complete Performance Assessment

When an athlete comes into the Human Performance Lab for a physiological assessment, they will not only be put through the paces to find out their individual performance variables, but they will learn why they are going through the assessments and how to apply the data to their training and racing.  We offer both gas exchange (VO2) and blood lactate assessments for the cyclist, runner, triathlete, rower, elite and fitness enthusiast.
