PEAK PERFORMANCE STARTS WITH TESTING

RETURN TO PEAK PROTOCOLS

The Return to Peak Protocols are specially designed testing protocols that assess and enhance the key variables important for overall health and function - strength, movement proficiency, function, fatigue and cardiovascular fitness. It gathers baseline data that helps you get back to your peak fitness and strength in a safe and effective manner, allowing you to achieve your health/athletic goals.

Our team uses the technologies and strategies used from elite sport to help you achieve your goals, improve key functional qualities and help you function strong.

Our Return to Peak Protocols are designed to assess the key qualities required for enhanced strength and function. Our protocols are:

STRENGTH & POWER TESTING - Become Stronger!
Our strength & power testing protocol include a variety of key tests that are indicative of performance for all elements of a health and performance. We use gyroscope and accelerometer technology to gain key data variables that inform programming and monitoring. We also assess key injury risk areas based on your injury history to minimise the risk of injury.

MOVEMENT PROFICIENCY & MOBILITY TESTING - Move Better & Smoother!

Our movement proficiency & mobility protocol assesses the key movement patterns involved in the gym performance. Your mobility is tested to gain valuable data metrics on any restrictions that may be limiting your function. This facilitates specific programming that addresses these areas to ensure you move better, without restrictions.

RUNNING GAIT ANALYSIS TESTING - Enhance Running Efficiency & Stop those Niggles!

Our running gait analysis testing protocol uses gyroscope technology and video analysis software to identify the areas of your running performance that may limit your efficiency, increase shock loads and ultimately increase the risk of injury. Our data-driven approach allows for key interventions that address running gait deviations identified to help your become a more efficient runner.

VO2 MAX TESTING - Maximise your Cardiovascular Aerobic Fitness!
Our VO2 max testing protocol uses the gold standard VO2 Master device to gain key ventilation data to understand your VO2 max, an important metric for understanding your cardiovascular fitness. Testing also provides key information in relation to your training zones, facilitating specific training strategies to train the key areas of your fitness important for heath and longevity.

RESTING METABOLIC RATE TESTING - Understand your Metabolism!
Our resting metabolic rate testing protocol is designed to gain key data on your resting energy expenditure and how this impacts your caloric requirement. Data obtained allows for specific reporting based on body composition goals and activity level to gain specific data that helps you achieve your body composition goals. Referral to nutritionist/dietician can also be arranged to action any factors identified.

Our Return to Peak Protocols are suitable for a wide variety of individuals:

  • Those looking to get started on their gym journey but are unsure where to start
  • Those who have struggled with injuries that limit their function and lifestyle goals
  • Individuals looking for a data-driven approach to their health, fitness and gym performance
  • Those looking to reduce the risk of injury in the future

Choosing TESTING AT GymTherapy means you will benefit from:

  • Experienced insights into your strength, balance, mobility, fitness and injury prevention
  • Data-driven insights into your health and performance
  • Specific testing and monitoring using contemporary technology
  • Personalised program recommendations specific to your needs and goals
  • A collaborative approach to ensure you receive the service you need

We gain data during our protocols on a variety of metrics important for gym performance:

  • Motor Control: Described as the initiation, grading, and regulation of movement involving the musculoskeletal and nervous system.
  • Strength Capacity: Also described as strength endurance, capacity measurements and programming assist in improving fatigue resistance of muscles.
  • VO2 Max: Is a measure of the body's capacity to maximally uptake oxygen from the environment and use it in skeletal muscle during intense full-body exercise (maximal oxygen consumption). It is considered the gold-standard measurement for cardiorespiratory fitness
  • Running Gait Deviations: A variety of deviations may be present during the running gait cycle that contribute to reduced efficiency, performance and increased injury risk. These are assessed through our IMU and video analysis technology.
  • Proprioception: Proprioception, otherwise known as kinesthesia, is your body's ability to sense movement, action, and location. It's present in every muscle movement you have. It combines balance and dynamic stability to enhance movement and reduce the risk of injury and falls.
