Why Fitness Testing Matters
Regular fitness testing is a cornerstone of effective training. It allows you to:
Train Smarter, Not Harder: Optimise your intensity levels for better results.
Track Your Progress: See tangible improvements in your fitness over time.
Identify Opportunities: Pinpoint your strengths and address weaknesses.
Testing is especially valuable:
Before starting a new training program.
At the beginning of the race season.
After significant training blocks to analyze progress.
The Testing Process
We use the industry-standard MAP Test (Maximal Aerobic Power) to assess your fitness:
Warm-Up: A ~20-minute preparation phase to get your body ready.
The Test: A progressive ramp test that gradually increases intensity until you reach your limit.
Cool Down & Results Review: After the test, we’ll calculate key metrics to help you train effectively
