The Scale Is Only One Measurement
The scale can tell you your total weight. It can't show how much muscle you carry, how your body composition is changing, how much energy you use at rest, or how well your body uses oxygen during exercise. Looking at those measurements together gives you a more useful picture of where you're starting and what may help you progress.
Measure What Supports Your Progress
Each assessment answers a different question about your body. Ryan and Anna can help you understand which information matters most for your goals and what to do with it.
Ultrasound Body Composition Measurement
Ultrasound body composition measurement estimates body fat and lean mass. It gives you a useful baseline and helps show whether your training and nutrition are changing your body composition in the intended direction.
Best used for: People tracking fat loss, muscle gain, or body recomposition who need more useful information than body weight alone can provide.
Resting Metabolic Rate Assessment (RMR)
Your resting metabolic rate shows how much energy your body uses at rest. This provides a more individualized starting point for calorie and macronutrient guidance that supports your workload, recovery, strength, and body-composition goals.
Best used for: People who want to better align their calorie intake with their training demands, recovery needs, and body-composition goals.
VO2 Max Assessment
VO2 max measures how effectively your body uses oxygen during exercise. The results help establish an aerobic-fitness baseline and guide your conditioning so you can improve your work capacity, recover between efforts, and better support your training.
Best used for: Lifters, athletes, and general fitness clients who want to improve conditioning, work capacity, and recovery during demanding training.
Put the Information Behind a Plan
Once your results are in, ACE-certified coach Ryan Sensenig and NASM-certified coach and competitive powerlifter Anna Swarr help you understand what they mean for your goals. They can use your baseline to:
- Set calorie and macronutrient targets
- Adjust exercise and conditioning choices
- Establish strength, body-composition, and fitness benchmarks
- Track whether your training is producing the intended changes
- Update your plan as your needs and performance change
You get more than test results. You gain practical direction from experienced coaches who can help you put that information to work.
Nutrition Guidance That Supports Your Training
Food plays an important role in how you train, recover, and perform. Ryan and Anna provide practical calorie, macronutrient, and food guidance shaped around your goals, preferences, and training demands.
This guidance complements your training rather than replacing professional nutrition care. A nutritionist or registered dietitian is the right resource for prescribed meal plans or specialized dietary support.
