For those serious about performance, health, and longevity, combining VO₂ _max and Lactate Threshold testing provides the most complete picture of your fitness and metabolic efficiency available.

VO₂ _max is the strongest single predictor of cardiovascular fitness and longevity. Using the state-of-the-art VO₂ Master® gas analyser, this test directly measures your oxygen uptake, delivering precise insight into endurance capacity, cardiovascular health, and long-term resilience.

Lactate threshold testing complements this by identifying both your aerobic and anaerobic thresholds through small capillary blood samples taken from the earlobe during a graded exercise test. These thresholds pinpoint the exact transition points in your energy systems, providing the most accurate foundation for personalized training zones, race pacing, and fatigue management.

Together, these assessments give you unparalleled knowledge of how your body performs and adapts—data far beyond what heart rate or power monitoring alone can reveal. Whether your goal is athletic performance, maximizing training efficiency, or investing in lifelong health, this dual testing package offers actionable insights to help you train smarter, recover better, and build a stronger, longer life.

Exercise testing completed at Tides is using a Wattbike Atom Next Generation exercise bike. If you are interested in a different modality or home-based testing, please contact the team.
