Healthy biomechanics are a critical ingredient when it comes to maximizing health span. We use cutting-edge Gait Analysis and 3D Functional Movement tools to identify and address problematic movement patterns and imbalances.
POWER AGE
Power isn’t just for sports, power is what allows us to pick up our kids, throw a ball to our dog, or put a suitcase in the trunk of a car. Using a unique device called the Proteus, we can measure your “Power Age'", giving you a sense of where you stand today and exactly how to train to drive improvement.

RESULTS Translated Into Actionable NExt Steps
We don’t just share your results. Our world class will put them in context and suggest lifestyle adaptations to drive improvement.

data-driven insights.
GOLD STANDARD TESTING.
Your assessment will be conducted with the same advanced equipment used by pro sports teams, elite military units, and top universities. Our clinically-validated tests are far more accurate than predicted data from wearable devices (from which we frequently observe wildly inaccurate results).
SPECIFIC TESTS INCLUDED
VO2 Max
From longevity luminaries like Dr. Peter Attia to professional athletes and university researchers, there is consensus that VO2 Max is one of the most powerful metrics to understand for those seeking to perform optimally while living a long and healthy life.
Unlike other tests in NYC, our VO2 Max test uses the latest wireless technology, allowing for greater comfort and freedom of movement without annoying hoses and wires getting in the way. The worlds top triathletes train with this exact same system.
Our VO2 Max test will identify your target heart rate training zones to improve cardiorespiratory fitness with maximum efficiency (i.e. Zone 2 training for longer, more frequent cardio sessions at around ~70% of your max heart rate vs Zone 4 training when you push hard at 80-90%).
A 2018 study of 122,007 patients showed “cardiorespiratory fitness was inversely associated with all-cause mortality without an observed upper limit of benefit”. The difference between those who tested “elite” were 5x more likely to survive over a ten year span than those who tested “low”. Even just going from “low” to “above average” was 60%+ reduction in mortality.
NYC Performance Lab is the only facility in NYC to give clients the option of performing their VO2 Max Test on a treadmill, bike (ours or yours), assault bike, or rowing machine. Run, ride, or row - the choice is yours!

Our unique protocol combines the “gold standard” accuracy of a DEXA scan (via our brand new Hologic DXA system) with the advanced reporting and added detail offered by a 3D Body Scan
“Digital tape measure” provides 21 segmental measurements of your entire body, revealing insights beyond the scale
More precise and reliable than bioimpedance systems (InBody, eVolt, SECA, etc); results are not skewed by factors like hydration level, meals, or time of day
Personalized 3D model created in real-time with each scan
Capture how your muscle tone, body fat, and posture develop over time. All results are saved in the cloud with interactive high-fidelity visualizations that let you compare vs past results and see data from every scan you’ve done charted on a timeline.
resting metabolic rate (RMR)
Understanding your Resting Metabolic Rate (or RMR) is critical to optimizing your diet and energy expenditure to meet your goals.
An accurate professional grade RMR test (powered by the same wireless mask used in our VO2 Max tests) will tell you how many calories your body burns in typical daily activities, allowing you to plan your caloric intake according to your weight management goals.
In addition, our report also includes related metrics and benchmarking for resting heart rate, heart rate variability, and metabolism speed.
RMR data can also be used by nutritionists, physicians, and other professionals when evaluating your metabolic function, health risks, and training protocols.
For those incorporating any type of fasting into their longevity or diet protocols, understanding your RMR is an important piece of the puzzle to consider.
Grip Strength
Research shows a strong correlation between grip strength and longevity, highlighting its importance as an indicator of upper body strength and muscle mass.
A weak grip can make it challenging to perform exercises with optimal form and even to fulfill activities of daily living later in life like opening a jar or twisting off a tight cap. On the contrary, a strong grip can be a crucial factor in preventing injuries like falls by enabling quick stabilization.
NYCPL’s grip strength tests are conducted using a state--of-the-art digital dynamometer that provides immediate visual feedback throughout a standardized series of grip tests.
Your follow-up report will include detailed metrics about your gripping force, asymmetries between your right and left hands, and normative data to benchmark you, allowing you to understand your baseline and improve their grip strength through targeted training strategies.
3D Functional movement
Healthy biomechanics are a pillar of long-term performance and wellbeing. The ability to move with stability, flexibility, and proper patterns is critical to preventing injury and supporting proper training.
Using the same advanced 3D motion capture technology used by pro sports teams and university sports performance labs, we conduct an in-depth 3D biomechanical analysis covering key single and multi-joint movements.
Our technology can detect imbalances in range of motion, limb asymmetry, and even small compensatory movements that could indicate a deficiency or stability issue.
Simple and clear reporting puts everything in context and provides actionable information that can used to adapt your training to address issues that were revealed.
Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just someone looking to stay as healthy as possible for as long as possible, 3D Movement Analysis can be a critical tool in your arsenal. By identifying and addressing foundational biomechanical issues that are impeding your progress today, you will accelerate your progress and prevent serious injury in the future.
Gait Analysis
Understanding how you move through the world is a critical part of our core mission to prolong your peak performance. From both an athletic and longevity context, it’s vital to know about imbalances in your gait that could be compromising your performance, contributing to chronic pain and increasing your risk of serious injury in the future.
A short 15-minute test using groundbreaking “smart insole” technology will reveal critical insights about how you walk, run, and jump.
Advanced analytics of spatiotemporal gait parameters such as stride length, pace, variability, speed, and support provides a wealth of valuable data about your speed, balance, agility, power output, and movement patterns.
Our team of experienced exercise physiologists and injury rehabilitation experts will walk you through your results and suggest training adaptations and rehabilitative interventions to address any issues identified.
Proteus Power Age Test
Initially developed as a training tool for elite professional athletes, the Proteus is a first-of-its-kind device that provides “3D resistance” across all planes of movement. This allows the user to simulate real-life functional movements, the vast majority of which are multiplanar.
Precision sensors in the device allow detailed measurement of acceleration, power, and unilateral differentials, providing a treasure-trove of data about which parts of your body are underdeveloped and potentially contributing to chronic pain, weakness, or impaired movement.
Power isn’t just about athletic performance, it’s about ensuring your body remains conditioned to perform activities of daily living as you age. Unfortunately, as we age, our ability to generate power is one of the first things to decline. The good news is that this decline can be significantly mitigated with proper training. Want to pick up your grandkids or put a suitcase in the overhead bin in your 80s or 90s? Those are exactly the sort of multiplanar dynamic movements that require power and stability.
One of the most interesting outputs of the Proteus is your Power Age score, which benchmarks the power you are able to generate after a short series of tests against others in various demographics. Even young and fit people can have a Power Age significantly older than their biological age, particularly if they’ve never trained with dynamic movement or are impaired by an injury that was never properly rehabilitated.
By measuring your power output across different body parts and movement planes early, critical deficiencies can be revealed and addressed with training, physical therapy, and other interventions to ensure you remain capable and confident as you age.
PersonalizeD Reports
After your Assessment is completed and you have reviewed and discussed your results with our team, a detailed follow-up report will be emailed to you with the raw data from your tests, benchmarks to know where you stand, and additional guidance on training and lifestyle adjustments.

“Unlike other places that focus too much on appearances, the team here focuses on what matters most: performance, data, and results.”
