1. Biometric Measurements
If we can measure it, we will track and improve it.
The first step after you sign up is taking your biometric measurements. We call your measurement/testing week "Week 0." In week 0, you're not training yet; we're measuring and testing to exactly where you currently stand, so you will see progress as fast as possible when we start training.
A
The Basics
With your age, weight, and height, we can determine International performance standards for your lifts, vertical jump, Vo2 max, waist-height ratio, and Body Mass Index. We will also use this information to determine your Resting Metabolic Rate and Daily requirements for Calories and Macronutrients; this sets the stage to launch into your training and nutrition program.
C
Skin Fold Measurements
We will take skin fold measurements to determine your Body Mass Index and Body Fat Percentage precisely. We will use this information to track your improvement in body composition over time relative to international standards.
D
Resting Heart Rate and Maximum Heart Rate
We will take your Resting heart rate and determine your Maximum Heart Rate to estimate your Standing, Aerobic Threshold, and Anaerobic Threshold Heart Rates; these cardio metrics allow us to track improvements in general health and well-being over time and more precisely design your Endurance program.
