Why is Fitness Testing Important

January 28 - Feb 1st we will be testing body composition using the Bod Pod and VO2 Max using a mask for measuring the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide as you breathe and perform a graded exercise test on a treadmill. This VO2 sub-max test will be very accurate and will be important in determining a correct workout heart-rate range for weight loss and increased performance! Knowing your results on these tests, you can better tailor your workouts to meet your specific needs and you can "tweak" your training to get the best results. Ahhh.... very efficient and if you're going to workout - you might as well have it work!
