Vo2 Max Testing
At The Dearing Clinic, our VO2 Max Testing reveals exactly how your body uses oxygen, burns fuel, and performs under effort — giving you the data-driven foundation to train smarter, recover faster, and live longer.
Powered by the PNOE metabolic analyzer, our testing goes beyond a simple fitness score. We decode your unique physiology so every workout, meal, and recovery choice is optimized for you.
Whats Included
Our PNOE-powered testing protocol measures your body's true metabolic fingerprint — from how you breathe at rest to how your heart, lungs, and muscles perform at peak effort. Each test is reviewed by our nurse practitioner and translated into an actionable treatment plan.
VO2 Max & Active Metabolic Rate (AMR) Testing
Your VO2 Max is the gold-standard measure of cardiovascular fitness and longevity. During active metabolic testing, we measure the precise volume of oxygen your body can use during maximum effort — then map your unique physiology in real time. You'll receive your true VO2 Max score alongside personalized training zones built from your actual data, not generic age-based formulas. We also measure your active metabolic rate — the real calories your body burns during exercise — as well as the exact ratio of fat and carbohydrates your body uses at every intensity level. From there, we build you a personalized workout plan designed around your results, and your provider walks through everything with you in a dedicated expert report review to translate data into action.
Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) Testing
How many calories does your body actually need at rest? Most people are guessing and getting it wrong. RMR testing measures your true baseline metabolism through breath analysis, revealing inefficiencies that calorie calculators simply can't detect. You'll walk away knowing your true resting metabolic rate — your actual daily calorie need, not an estimate — along with a clear picture of your fat-burning efficiency, showing how well your body oxidizes fat as a fuel source at rest. The test also provides a metabolic, heart, and lung fitness assessment that flags early markers of cardiovascular and respiratory health, and delivers individualized calorie and macronutrient targets tailored to whether your goal is fat loss, performance, or long-term vitality.
Fit3D Body Composition Scan
Every PNOE testing session is paired with a complimentary Fit3D scan, giving you a 3D model of your body composition — lean mass, fat mass, and key measurements — to track changes over time and contextualize your metabolic results.
Personalized Nutrition Programming
For patients who choose the Full Experience package, we build a customized nutrition program around your metabolic data. Know the exact macronutrient ratios and calorie targets that support your goals, whether that's fat loss, peak performance, or longevity.
Provider Report Review & Treatment Planning
Your data only matters if it's translated into action. Our nurse practitioner reviews every report with you — walking through your findings, answering your questions, and building a Phase 1 Treatment Plan tailored to your health goals over the next 90 days.
