Metabolic testing in Zürich

Find out your body’s energy profile & flexibility

Metabolic testing provides a deep insight into how your body uses energy by measuring breath gases at rest. This non-invasive test analyzes oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production to determine your resting metabolic rate (RMR)—the number of calories your body burns at rest.

In addition to RMR, this test reveals your metabolic flexibility—your body’s ability to efficiently switch between burning carbohydrates and fats for fuel. A high metabolic flexibility means your body can adapt based on activity and food intake, optimizing energy use. A low metabolic flexibility may indicate challenges in fat metabolism, energy fluctuations, or difficulty with weight management. Understanding this can help you tailor nutrition and training strategies for better performance and overall well-being.

The test is conducted lying down in a relaxed state, ensuring accurate and reliable results. Your personalized report will provide precise data on caloric needs, macronutrient balance, and how efficiently your body utilizes fuel sources.

This service is available for both members and non-members, making it an excellent tool for anyone looking to take control of their health and fitness.

Frequently asked question

By measuring your breath gases, we analyze how much oxygen you consume and carbon dioxide you exhale, revealing your resting metabolic rate and metabolic flexibility.

Metabolic flexibility is your body’s ability to switch between burning carbs and fats for energy. High flexibility improves energy efficiency, performance, and fat metabolism, while low flexibility may lead to fatigue, energy crashes, and difficulty losing weight.

Anyone looking to optimize nutrition, improve training efficiency, or better understand their metabolism—from athletes to those focusing on weight management.

For the most accurate results, avoid eating, drinking caffeine, or exercising for at least 4 hours before the test and rest beforehand.
