Individual Performance Testing Services
Testing with West Coast Health is a great way to learn more about your body, training and why you should train a certain way. Discover our range of high performance testing services available.
DEXA (Body Composition) $90
The DEXA scan is the gold standard procedure for body composition analysis. This will detail the quantities and proportions of total and segmental lean (muscle), fat and bone mass. Body composition assessment involves an X-ray scan which takes 5-minutes to scan the entire body.
Measure your body fat percentage, lean muscle mass and muscle size asymmetry.
PRE-TEST REQUIREMENTS: GP Referral
VO2 Max Test $170
VO2 Max Testing is the gold standard test for Aerobic fitness assessment. This test assists in:
Measuring your maximum aerobic capacity
Establishing training zones to assist improved performance
The test starts with a 2-minute warm-up at a walking pace, with an incremental increase in either the treadmill speed or incline until exhaustion. Recommended for athletes, aged between 18-60.
PRE-TEST REQUIREMENTS: Written consent, you must fit the requirements to undertake a maximal aerobic fitness test.
Blood Lactate Testing $210
Gain deeper insights into your endurance and performance potential with our Blood Lactate Testing.
This assessment measures your body’s ability to manage and clear lactate during exercise, helping to identify your optimal training zones and thresholds.
Perfect for athletes of all levels, it’s a key tool to refine your training, boost efficiency, and achieve peak performance.
Strength & Power Testing $100
Forceplate/AXIT testing which includes:
Jump & Hop Height
Jump & Hop Peak Force and Symmetry
Chest & Back Strength
Squat Strength & Symmetry
Calf Strength & Symmetry
Hamstring Strength & Symmetry
BIODEX $120
The Biodex allows us to assess the strength and power of your hamstring and quadricep while applying constant resistance at various speeds and ranges of motion. It provides crucial information about the strength and power differences between limbs and the strength ratio between hamstring and quadricep.
Woodway Gait Analysis $70
This test measures your velocity, power, vertical & horizontal force as well as limb symmetry (stride length, rate & forces).
RMR $110
Resting Metabolic Rate testing involves finding out the amount of energy that you expend at rest. You will lie down in a relaxed state for 30-minutes, breathing into a mouthpiece.
Determine how much energy your vital organs need to keep the body running, calculate how much energy is required to fuel your body to perform at peak and how much food consumption is appropriate for weight loss and muscle gain.
PRE-TEST REQUIREMENTS: Having sustained from any stimulants (coffee, etc) and fasted for 4 hours.
Musculoskeletal Screening $70
Searching for imbalances between flexibility and strength and establishing asymmetry & injury risk profile.
