VO2 Max, Lactate and RMR Testing

What is VO2 Max?

VO2 Max testing, the gold standard for cardio fitness, measures your body’s ability to use oxygen during exercise. The higher your VO2 Max, the fitter you are. It will help you personalise your training zones, understand your cardiovascular health, and has a limit you can improve through training for better endurance.

Lactate testing measures how your body uses energy during exercise. By analysing lactate (a byproduct of energy production), it reveals your lactate threshold – the intensity where your body struggles to clear lactate. Knowing this helps optimise training zones for better performance, monitor progress, and prevent overtraining, ultimately making you a smarter, stronger athlete.

Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) testing will allow you to see how many calories your body burns at rest, the baseline for your daily energy needs. This helps with weight management by setting realistic calorie goals, understanding your body’s metabolism, and informing personalised nutrition plans.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Craig helped me recover after a bike accident from concussions and whiplash. His broad experience and knowledge across various fields of alternative medicine were invaluable. Beyond, he really takes a personal interest in one‘s recovery, fully tailoring the treatment and following up regularly to ensure recovery is as swiftly and smoothly as possible outside the sessions. Couldn’t recommend him more highly

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been seeing Craig for many years and honestly have to say with his combined experience in injury, strength training, osteopathy and general wellbeing I would be lost! Not only do I learn from my sessions but I look forward to them. I’m definitely better with less pain and more movement working with Craig. I highly recommend. My current goal is getting stronger in my mid-life.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came to see Craig about a hamstring injury a cpl years ago. Not only did he address my injury, but throughout the process Craig was fantastic at helping me understand my injury, the recovery process and the preventative measures I can take in future. He  also dispelled a number of misconceptions I had around my injury and how I should recover, giving me the confidence to push myself when I needed to. I have not had a hamstring injury since, in fact they feel better than ever.  I have recommended Craig to a number of friends who have all had similar experiences. Great guy and very knowledgable.
