Questions before you book
What exactly is a PNOĒ test?
PNOĒ is a breath analyzer. You wear a soft face mask while it measures the oxygen you use and the carbon dioxide you produce with every breath. From that it calculates your metabolic rate, VO₂ max, fat and carb burn, training zones and more, with accuracy comparable to hospital equipment.
Which test should I choose?
Resting Metabolic Rate is best if your main goal is weight or nutrition. VO₂ Max & Active Metabolic is best for training, endurance and heart-lung fitness. The Complete Assessment includes both, plus provider interpretation, and gives the fullest picture for longevity.
How long does it take?
The resting test is a short, relaxed session of quiet breathing. The VO₂ max test is a progressive ride that gets harder for several minutes before a cool-down. Plan for about an hour for the complete assessment, including setup and time to go over your results.
How do I prepare?
We'll send prep instructions when you book. In general, come rested, skip food and caffeine for a few hours beforehand, avoid hard exercise earlier that day, and wear comfortable workout clothes and shoes for the VO₂ max test.
Is it hard? What does the mask feel like?
The resting test is easy: you sit and breathe normally. The VO₂ max test is a real workout, but you control the effort and can stop at any time. The mask is soft silicone and you breathe freely through it.
How often should I retest?
Many people retest every three to four months to see how their metabolism and fitness respond to the plan. Your provider can suggest the right timing for your goals.
Your breath already has the answers.
