Your metabolism, measured.

Two of the most predictive numbers in longevity medicine — how much oxygen you can use at peak effort, and how many calories you burn at rest. Directly measured, physician-interpreted, and built into your plan — not estimated by a watch.

Two tests. Choose your starting point.

Measured at peak effort and at rest — do one, or both in a single visit.

At peak effort

VO2 max testing

The gold-standard measure of cardiorespiratory fitness and one of the strongest predictors of longevity. A graded cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) measures the most oxygen your body can use — then we make it a number you can train.

At rest

Resting metabolic rate

The calories your body burns at complete rest — the largest share of your daily energy, and the foundation of any precise nutrition or weight plan. Measured by indirect calorimetry, not guessed from an equation.

In one sentence

What is metabolic performance testing?

Metabolic performance testing at Aesura is directly measured VO2 max and resting metabolic rate in Hackensack, NJ. The same metabolic cart captures how efficiently your body uses oxygen at maximal effort and how many calories it burns at rest. A physician interprets both against age- and sex-adjusted norms, sets your training and nutrition zones, and retests over time so your longevity plan runs on measurement instead of estimates.

Who books metabolic testing

Longevity-focused patients tracking healthspan
Weight-loss patients needing a real calorie target
Patients building a precision-medicine roadmap
Athletes & weekend warriors training by zones
Anyone whose diet has stalled on estimates
Returning patients retesting their progress

Why measured beats estimated.

Smartwatches and equations approximate. A metabolic cart measures the air you actually breathe — the difference is often hundreds of calories or a full fitness category.

Direct measurement

Breath-by-breath gas analysis, not a heart-rate model.

Physician read

Interpreted against your age- and sex-adjusted norms.

Real zones

Training and calorie targets set from your own numbers.

Retested

Re-measured over time to prove the plan is working.

Frequently asked

Metabolic testing — your questions, answered.

Common questions about VO2 max and RMR testing in Bergen County, NJ.
Metabolic performance testing at Aesura Health uses a metabolic cart to directly measure two numbers: your VO2 max — the maximum oxygen you can use at peak effort, the gold-standard measure of cardiorespiratory fitness — and your resting metabolic rate (RMR), the calories your body burns at rest. Together they describe how your body uses energy from rest to maximal exertion.
Yes. The same metabolic cart performs both tests at Aesura Health in Hackensack, NJ, so VO2 max and resting metabolic rate can be measured in a single visit. Many patients do both to get a complete energy and fitness picture.
Aesura Health offers physician-overseen VO2 max and RMR testing at 390 Hackensack Ave in Hackensack, NJ, serving Bergen County including Alpine, Saddle River, Tenafly, Englewood, Ridgewood, Edgewater, Fort Lee, and Paramus. Call (201) 983-2582 to schedule.
