Fitness Assessment
Member Price $24.99         

There are many components to fitness, including body composition (percentage body fat vs. lean body mass), cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, muscular strength, and muscular endurance. Each component is a page in the story of your overall fitness.

Our 30-minute personalized fitness assessment measures all of these components, plus girth measurements and a postural analysis, providing you with a comprehensive understanding of your starting point and what is required to achieve your fitness goals. Additionally, your initial assessment will provide a benchmark from which to measure your progress towards your fitness goals. The assessment will center around utilizing a SECA body composition analyzer, and you will be given a printed report of your body measurements.
