    The purpose of the testing is to give you specific, individualised training advice based on your physiology.

  • We all know exercise is good for us. But how do you know if your workout routine is actually working? Are you pushing yourself hard enough? Or maybe you're doing too much and risking injury.

    This is where fitness testing comes in. It's like taking your car for a tune-up – a chance to assess your current fitness level and identify areas for improvement.
