High-Performance Sport & Exercise Science Testing at The SPRINT Lab
We specialise in sport and exercise science testing, health and injury screening, for a wide range of individuals. Whether you're a cyclist, runner, triathlete or someone wanting to optimise their health, The SPRINT Lab can help you. We offer Lactate Threshold Tests, VO2max Tests, Metabolic and Body Composition Assessments, Maximal Anaerobic Power Tests, as well as Cardiovascular/metabolic and Respiratory Screening.
WHAT WE OFFER
Lactate Threshold Test
Measuring blood lactate concentrations during increasing intensities of exercise helps us accurately determine training thresholds.
VO2 Max Test
A VO2 Max Test is the gold standard assessment for determining your maximal aerobic capacity, i.e how big your aerobic engine is.
Metabolic, Cardiovascular, & Body Composition Assessments
This combination of assessments is perfect to better understand your daily calorie needs and how it plays a part in your body composition, cardiovascular and cardiometabolic health. This is ideal for those wishing to optimise weight loss or maintain a healthy body.
Anaerobic Performance Assessments
Assessing anaerobic performance is very relevant for endurance athletes, examples include 1) tactical decisions for athletes, i.e., knowing your capacity to make a break away (explosive power), 2) determine whether your power-endurance is a limiting factor of your ability to perform, 3) increases top end aerobic energy system development, and 4) determining your potential for injury. All of these allow you and your coach to better adapt your training programme.
Athlete Health Screening
The prevalence of a range of undiagnosed health conditions for athletes is high. For example, up to 90% of athletes with asthma, and 20% of non-asthmatics suffer from exercise induce bronchoconstriction (EIB)
