Assess the functional capacity...

Fitmate PRO is the smallest laboratory available in the world able to perform fitness assessment and functional evaluation on individuals willing to receive clear and comprehensive feedback concerning their wellness and physical fitness conditions.

Cardio-respiratory fitness (CRF)

The CFR (VO2max) is the most important assessment of the cardio respiratory function. Fitmate allows this assessment through the following tests: Direct measurement of VO2max during an up to maximal exertion incremental exercise protocoll;
Extrapolation of VO2max by the measurement of O2 & HR during a sub-maximal incremental exercise;
Estimation of VO2max basing on the results achieved during some standard field tests.

Fitness assessment
