HEALTH SCREENING
BodyAge Analysis
The Fitness Center is invested in your health. We want you to use the club to improve yourself.
Using a state-of-the-art computer system, we will perform a "BodyAge
Analysis" to assess your current condition. You will receive a detailed
printed report including an exercise prescription unique to your body.
Every 90 days, with a simple re-examination, you can determine your progress
and adjust your exercise program accordingly.
Your personalized plan of action will be easy to understand. You will finally have realistic goals and expectations.
Just call the Champaign office to schedule your assessment.
These valuable assessments are FREE as part of your Fitness Center membership.
Your BodyAge Analysis will include measurements of body composition, resting heart rate, cardiorespiratory endurance, muscle strength and flexibility.
Body composition: The health screen administrators will determine your body composition by a method known as bio-impedance. This test will indicate fat tissue percentage, lean tissue percentage, basal metabolic rate and total body water that the client may have.
Heart Rate: You will have your resting heart rate checked. A 3-minute step test will also be administered to assess how well you adapt to cardiovascular exercise. This test allows us to evaluate the effects an exercise program has on your resting heart rate.
Muscular strength and flexibility: A device called a dynamometer will be used to test your grip strength. Your lower body flexibility will also be measured by a sit-and-reach test.
A health screen usually requires about 30 minutes, depending on the amount of questions that you ask. To make the test as comfortable as possible for you, wear loose-fitting shorts and a short-sleeved shirt.
Please do not work out prior to the health screen and limit your caffeine intake several hours before your appointment. These can both have effects on the accuracy of your results.
If you have any questions regarding health screens or would like to schedule your appointment, please call The Fitness Center.
