Quick answers
Good to know.
The core trio: a DEXA scan for body composition, a VO₂ Max test for cardio fitness, and an RMR test for metabolism. Each is a clinical-grade reading, and you review your results with a specialist during the same visit.
A single test books one assessment on its own. A bundle combines two or more tests in the same visit, which costs less than booking each one separately and gives you a fuller picture in one trip.
Yes. The comprehensive biomarker panel (80+ biomarkers, powered by Marek Health) is available under Bundled Services with Beyond the Works or Beyond Know Your Burn, or as an add-on to another DexaFit service. Pick Biomarker panel above to book it. The biomarker test is non-refundable. See every marker.
For a DEXA scan, avoid eating for about 2 hours beforehand. For a VO₂ Max test, hold food for about 3 hours. For an RMR test, come in fasted for about 5 hours. Wear comfortable clothing with no metal, and bring water.
