Fitness assessments
What is a fitness assessment and do I need one?

If you are looking at getting an experienced analysis of your overall fitness, health and wellness, then a fitness assessment is just what you need — whether you are a professional athlete or an office worker.
all about health&wellness offers you a variety of fitness assessments. These take place in our fully-equipped gym, where you can be assured of a quality private and personalised atmosphere.
John Haywood, the physiotherapist, will take you through the assessment, ensuring you understand each aspect and its relevance to your exercise needs and lifestyle.
What will John be assessing for?
- Flexibility
- Are you supple for your age?
- Strength measurement
- Are you strong and do you have balanced strength?
- Aerobic capacity
- How’s your second wind?
- Posture
- Do you stand tall, or sit slouched?
- Body composition
- Are you carrying a spare tyre?
All these parameters can be scientifically measured so you can see where you are at, but more importantly find out where you need to be, given your age and gender.
Once we have tested you, we can prescribe the right specific program for your needs. The proof lies in the re-test: after all your hard work, you can see and measure your improvement.
The tests that we employ are safe, scientific and accurate. John will expand on the specifics of each test when you make your appointment.
Should you require specific details of each testing component please feel free to contact us.
