Our Longevity Packages are specially designed testing protocols that assess and enhance the key variables important for healthy ageing and function - strength, movement, fatigue and cardiovascular fitness.
Our team uses the technologies and strategies used from elite sport to help you achieve your longevity goals, improve key functional qualities and help you function strong through the stages of life.
Longevity is not just about living longer - it's about extending the time we have to do the things we love in life with good health and function (think health span + longevity).
The traditional reactive approach to medicine awaits diagnosis and illness to occur before taking action. This fails to account for the longterm chronic changes in health that can occur far before symptoms and diagnosis occurs.
Tackling longevity to enhance health and function requires a modern proactive approach. By completing advanced testing, key data insights allow you to take the proactive actions required to enhance your longevity and health span.
Our Centurion Longevity Protocols are suitable for a wide variety of individuals:
We gain data during our protocols on a variety of metrics important for longevity and healthspan:
VO2 max refers to the maximum rate at which your muscles can extract oxygen from your blood and put it to metabolic use to generate energy. It can be tested on a treadmill, bike or rowing machine.
When investigating VO2 max in relation to all-cause mortality, there are clear trends. Simply increasing your VO2 max from ‘low’ (bottom 25th percentile) to ‘below average’ (25th to 50th percentile) is associated with a 50% reduction in all-cause mortality.
Measures hand and wrist strength via hand held dynamometry technology.
Grip strength is a great proxy for overall strength and muscle mass, particularly with upper body strength with several studies demonstrating an association between grip strength and longevity.
Measures maximum strength capacity, assessing lower body strength with particular focus on a knee dominant position. We use our advanced force plate technology to gain valuable insights into your maximal strength.
Strength, particularly lower body strength characteristics as several associations with longevity. Directly, higher levels of strength and muscle mass is associated with better function and ability to perform daily tasks. Further, the indirect benefits of strength training (bone health, metabolism, body composition) are also associated with better health and longevity.
Measures maximum strength capacity, assessing lower body strength with particular focus on a hip dominant position. We use our advanced force plate technology to gain valuable insights into your maximal strength.
Strength, particularly lower body strength characteristics as several associations with longevity. Directly, higher levels of strength and muscle mass is associated with better function and ability to perform daily tasks.

Measures explosive leg strength and power. We use our advanced force plate technology to gain valuable insights into your maximal power output.
Power and reactive strength is an indicator of lower body strength and speed qualities. It is associated with reactive strength, an important quality that diminishes during the ageing process.
Measurement of specific tissue strength, particularly useful in instances where previous injury has occurred using our dynamometry and force plate technology.
The biggest risk of injury and reduced function, is previous injuries. By assessing areas of previous injury we are able to gain data on strength asymmetries that may be present, facilitating proactive strategies to mitigate injury risk.
