Complete Athlete Profiling

£600 · About 3 hours

Biomechanical analysis including force-plate testing, followed by VO₂ max and blood lactate analysis in one appointment lasting about three hours. One integrated written report.

VO₂ Max Test

£160 · 1 hour

Expired gas analysis on the KORR CardioCoach MAX. VO₂ max, ventilatory thresholds, measured maximum heart rate, training zones, and estimated fuel use across exercise intensities. No blood sample.

Blood Lactate Analysis

£160 · 1 hour

A progressive blood lactate profile with LT1 and LT2 interpretation, heart-rate and running pace or cycling power zones, and a written report. No VO₂ max test or gas analysis.

Endurance Performance Profiling

£280 · About 90 minutes

A progressive blood lactate profile with LT1 and LT2, then a separate maximal test for aerobic capacity and the ventilatory responses. Zones in your own pace and heart rate.

Resting Metabolic Rate Assessment

£135 · 1 hour

Resting energy expenditure measured by indirect calorimetry rather than predicted from age, height, weight and sex. Your daily requirement is then estimated from that measured figure.

Sweat & Hydration Assessment

£150 · 90 minutes

A steady-state session of 45–60 minutes at an intensity relevant to your event, with fluid balance measured across it. Separates sweat rate, sweat sodium concentration and total sodium loss per hour.

Biomechanical Assessment

£300 · 1 hour

Recorded shoulder and hip measurements, standing analysis and loading tests interpreted together to identify movement strategy and relative motion availability. The findings guide movement and strength work, with a written report.

Force & Power Profile

£150 · 1 hour

How you produce force when the time to produce it is limited. Braking, the transition into propulsion, impulse, timing, velocity, power and each limb’s contribution, on Hawkin Dynamics force plates.

Movement & Force Production Strategy Assessment

£400 · 90 minutes

The Biomechanical Assessment and the Force & Power Profile in one appointment, read together: what options you have, and how that strategy holds up when you have to produce force quickly.

Common questions

Which assessment should I book?

Start with the question you want to answer. VO₂ max and endurance testing help you set training intensities. Movement and force testing help you choose priorities for strength work. Resting metabolic rate and sweat testing inform fuelling and hydration. Complete Athlete Profiling combines biomechanical analysis with force plates, VO₂ max and blood lactate analysis in one appointment for £600. Resting metabolic rate and sweat testing are separate services.

Do I need to be a competitive athlete?

No. You can book whether you are building your fitness, preparing for your first event or already competing. We discuss your goals and training background so the assessment and recommendations are relevant to you.

Can I book an assessment without coaching?

Yes. Every assessment can be booked on its own. You receive a written report and practical recommendations that you can use independently or share with your existing coach.

What will I receive after my assessment?

We explain your results and what they mean for your goals. Your written report records the findings and recommendations, giving you a reference for planning training and reviewing progress.

Does the VO₂ Max Test include blood lactate?

No. Blood lactate testing is included in Endurance Performance Profiling. This combines a progressive lactate test with a separate maximal VO₂ test to assess aerobic fitness and establish training zones. Resting metabolic rate is a separate assessment.

How much do assessments cost?

Assessments start at £135 for Resting Metabolic Rate. The VO₂ Max Test and standalone Blood Lactate Analysis are £160 each. Endurance Performance Profiling combines both for £280. Each assessment page lists its price, duration and what is included, so you can compare the options before booking.

How long should I allow for testing?

The VO₂ Max Test, Biomechanical Assessment and Force & Power Profile each take about an hour. Endurance Performance Profiling and the Sweat & Hydration Assessment take about 90 minutes. Allow an hour for Resting Metabolic Rate, including a 20 to 30 minute resting measurement. Complete Athlete Profiling takes about three hours in one appointment.

How should I prepare for my assessment?

Preparation depends on the assessment. Check the instructions on your chosen assessment page and in your booking information. Some tests require fasting; others require you to arrive fuelled. Contact us before your appointment if you are unsure.

At UNTIL Liverpool Street, 280 Bishopsgate, London EC2M 4RB; UNTIL Marylebone, 1 Orchard Street, London W1H 6HJ; and UNTIL Canary Wharf, 30 South Colonnade, London E14 5HX. Assessments are available at all three locations by appointment.
