PerformWell
The HPC team, led by a BASES-accredited physiologist, works closely with athletes and coaching staff to determine performance status and needs for training progression, as well as assist in the achievement of individual and team goals. PerformWell is designed to assess, advise and monitor performance across exercise, physiology and biomechanics.
Fitness Testing
Anaerobic Threshold
This test will provide you with an assessment of your individual anaerobic threshold (AT). The anaerobic threshold is the highest exercise intensity that you can sustain for a prolonged period without lactate substantially building up in your blood. This threshold is used to identify and optimise individual training intensities and programmes and to monitor progress to performance goals.
VO2 Max Test
The test will provide you with an assessment of your maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). This is the gold standard measurement of aerobic fitness. It can be used to compare your aerobic status to normative values for age gender and sport as well as tracking the impact of training programmes on development of aerobic fitness.
Anaerobic Theshold and VO2 Max Test
This test will provide you with an assessment of your both your maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) and anaerobic threshold (AT). When measured with VO2max, knowing your ATit can provide a better assessment of training status and is a more sensitive indicator of adaptations to training and fitness improvement.
FatMax for Sport
The Fatmax test is a physiological assessment designed to determine the optimal exercise intensity for fat oxidation. The results are valuable for those who are interested in optimizing fat metabolism during exercise, such as individuals engaged in endurance training or those seeking to improve body composition.
Acclimation Services
Heat Acclimation Taster/Consultation
The Human Performance Centre promotes healthy lifestyles, elite performance and innovation. With specialist biomechanics, physiology and gati analysis laboratories, we have assisted elite and Olympic level as well as developing athletes, and our reputation grows year on year.
1 x Heat Acclimation Sessions
The heat acclimation service involves repeatedly exposing you to artificial competition conditions via our environmental chamber prior to flying out to compete. This will enable you to adapt to the conditions that you will be competing in.
5 x Heat Acclimation Sessions
The heat acclimation service involves repeatedly exposing you to artificial competition conditions via our environmental chamber prior to flying out to compete. This will enable you to adapt to the conditions that you will be competing in.
10 x Heat Acclimation Sessions
The heat acclimation service involves repeatedly exposing you to artificial competition conditions via our environmental chamber prior to flying out to compete. This will enable you to adapt to the conditions that you will be competing in.
15 x Heat Acclimation Sessions
The heat acclimation service involves repeatedly exposing you to artificial competition conditions via our environmental chamber prior to flying out to compete. This will enable you to adapt to the conditions that you will be competing in.
Altitude Acclimation Taster/Consultation
The altitude acclimation service involves repeatedly exposing you to artificial competition conditions via our environmental chamber or through the use of a hypoxicator. This will enable you to adapt to the conditions that you will be competing in.

Recovery Services
Thermal Bath
The thermal bath by Icool is used for recovery after exercise. The thermal bath ranges from 5-40 degrees meaning that you can use it for icebaths or hot baths.
