See what your scale at home isn't telling you

In about 20 seconds, the 360° scan records 36 body measurements and creates a 3D view of your shape. We compare your scans over time to see where your measurements are actually changing.

What does the scan show?
It gives you a 3D view and measurements from around your body, including areas such as your chest, waist, hips, and thighs.
How do we use it?
Your team compares scans over time to follow changes in your measurements. The scan also provides a posture analysis. Body fat is measured separately with the hydrostatic test.

See more than a number. Track where your body is changing.

Resting metabolic rate testing
Know how your body uses energy.
Resting metabolic rate

Know how your body uses energy.

You breathe into a testing device for about 12 minutes while it measures your resting energy use. Your team uses the result, along with your activity and goals, to help plan your meals.

What happens?
You sit and breathe into a mask connected to a testing device. The test estimates the calories your body uses at rest.
How does it guide my meal plan?
Your result gives us a starting point for prescribing your custom nutrition plan. We consider it alongside your activity, body composition, and goals, then review your progress and adjust the plan as needed.

Your nutrition plan starts with your results. Everything at Live In Fitness is individualized to you!

Learning your optimal fat-burning zone

As you exercise on a treadmill, a mask and heart-rate monitor track how your body responds as the effort increases. The results help your team understand your aerobic fitness and set training heart-rate zones.

What happens?
You walk or run on a treadmill wearing a breathing mask and heart-rate monitor. The test gradually increases in intensity while your response is measured.
How do we use the results?
The results help your coaches understand your aerobic fitness and choose appropriate heart-rate zones and workout intensity. Repeat testing can help track changes over time.

We train you at your starting level and challenge you to become stronger.

Hydrostatic body composition testing
Understand what your weight is made of.
Hydrostatic body composition

The "dunk"

The dunk estimates your body fat and lean mass by comparing your weight on land with your weight underwater. You’ll exhale as fully as you can before briefly submerging, since air left in your lungs can affect the reading.

What happens?
Your team guides you through the test. You’re weighed on land and then briefly submerged while your underwater weight is recorded. You’ll be asked to exhale as fully as possible before submerging.
How do we use the results?
The results estimate body fat and lean mass. Your team reviews them with your other measurements to help guide your nutrition and workouts. Repeating the test can help track changes over time.

The scale can’t tell you the whole story. The dunk helps show how your body composition is changing.
