Maximizing your racing potential? Don't overlook the 5-minute power test!

As demonstrated by road racing cyclist Lukas Löer, knowing your 5-minute max can give you a strategic advantage.

Lukas relied on the COSMED wearable metabolic device to accurately measure his maximum oxygen consumption during a live test in La Garrotxa Natural Park hills.

Join COSMED’s Marco Meucci, PhD. and Eric Pyles, MEd.CSCS.TSAC-F.Pn1 for the webinar Fitness Testing as Public Health Strategy: Data That Drives Change.

Learn how metabolic and fitness assessments can support chronic disease prevention and health promotion at both the individual and public health levels. This session explores how VO₂max, resting metabolic rate (RMR), body composition, BMI, blood pressure, and chronic disease risk indicators can be interpreted together using COSMED’s OMNIA software.

Key topics include integrating assessment data, understanding results in a public health context, and communicating findings clearly to support client education, goal setting, and wellness programming.

Long-distance runner Ossi Peltoniemi from Finnish Lapland recently elevated his training with a full metabolic test using the COSMED K5 at the Santasport Olympic Training Center in Rovaniemi.

Led by Riikka Kivistö, Head of Testing Services, the assessment delivered key insights into:
🔹 Training pace ranges
🔹 Heart rate zones
🔹 VO₂max

These metrics help fine-tune Ossi’s training, maximize performance & support long-term athletic development.

During the session, Ossi completed progressively faster 3-minute stages with blood lactate measured between each stage, providing a precise view of his endurance & capacity.

Looking forward to our second Health & Performance Collective meeting on June 11th at 3:00 PM CT.

We’ll use the Collective to work through each one of the most common barriers we identified during our first meeting: finance and resources, time, and advertising. Come ready to share your story, hear from peers, and bring your curiosity to the conversation. The goal is to leave with at least one idea and a strategy you can try in your own setting.

We’d love to have you join us, and please feel free to invite any colleagues who may be interested in being part of the conversation.

Normal BMI. Hidden Risk.
Would traditional screening catch this?

A 50-year-old sedentary adult presents with:
✅ BMI: 24.9 — Normal
✅ Blood pressure: 123/82 mmHg
✅ Body weight: Healthy range

At first glance, this may look like a low-risk profile.
🛑 But physiology can tell a very different story.

What if body composition, VO₂max, resting metabolism, or grip strength revealed risk that BMI and blood pressure did not?

In our upcoming ACSM webinar, we’ll walk through real case studies showing how advanced assessments can reveal hidden risk and support earlier, more targeted intervention.

The Healthcare Gap Nobody Talks About
We screen millions of people, but who guides the next step?

✅ Public health has screening
✅ Healthcare has diagnostics
🛑 But what happens in between?

Most people have access to basic measurements such as BMI, blood pressure, and activity questionnaires. Far fewer receive physiological assessments that can identify functional decline, metabolic dysfunction, or reduced fitness before disease becomes apparent.

The challenge isn't a lack of tools.

It's the lack of a structured pathway connecting population screening with physiological assessment and clinical care.

We'll discuss how field testing and advanced physiological assessments can help bridge that gap.

The Q-NRG Max Metabolic Monitor & COSMED E5 Bike are revolutionizing personalized health.

Led by Dr. Oliver Boekels, Andrea Rutz Rodriguez, & Nikolay Milev, the team uses advanced tools to:

✅ Measure resting energy expenditure, VO2 Max, & body composition in one session.
✅ Develop tailored training plans to support active, independent ageing.

Why it matters:

VO2 Max is a powerful predictor of life expectancy and future health, including risks of cardiovascular disease & Alzheimer’s. By analyzing the heart, lungs, & muscles, we gain insights that drive better health outcomes & longevity.

Stay active, stay independent, stay strong! 💪

Should Fitness Be Treated Like a Vital Sign?
One of the strongest predictors of health is rarely measured.

Most health screenings measure things like:
✅ Body weight
✅ BMI
✅ Blood pressure

🛑 But what about cardiorespiratory fitness?

Research consistently shows that cardiorespiratory fitness is one of the strongest predictors of long-term health outcomes; yet it is rarely assessed in routine health screenings.

Similarly, measures such as grip strength have emerged as powerful indicators of physiological resilience and healthy aging.

What if fitness and function were treated like vital signs?

In our upcoming ACSM webinar, we'll explore how VO₂max, grip strength, body composition, and metabolic assessments can uncover risks that traditional screening may miss.
