Health & Fitness Testing & Programs

Our health and fitness programs, which include personal training, can help you improve your stamina and teach you how to maximize your fitness potential.

We offer weight-loss tests and programs that complement the services offered at NYU Langone’s Weight Management Program.

Experts at our Sports Performance Center also offer sports performance testing, training, and special programs for runners and golfers.

Health and Fitness Evaluation

The health and fitness evaluation is designed for people of all ages and fitness levels who wish to obtain a baseline understanding of their current health and fitness status, with the goal of preventing disease and improving health, fitness, and quality of life. The evaluation includes the following:

  • heart rate and blood pressure measurements
  • body fat analysis
  • aerobic capacity test measuring oxygen consumption (VO2max or submax test is given based on the person’s health)
  • assessment of strength and flexibility using FMS™

Based on information gathered during the evaluation, our specialists provide exercise prescriptions to improve health and fitness concerns identified during evaluation. This test may be recommended as part of your treatment plan through NYU Langone’s Weight Management Program.

Change for Menopause Program

The Creating Healthy Activity and Nutrition Goals for Empowering CHANGE program is designed to provide participants experiencing perimenopause or menopause with tools to build resilience, tackle obstacles, and improve lifestyle behaviors.

Designed by a clinical exercise physiologist and registered dietitian, the classes address such topics as motivation, setting realistic goals, and the various ways that diet and activity can affect the symptoms many women experience as they progress through menopause.

In six weekly sessions, participants gather to learn, discuss, and develop strategies to improve their daily lives. Topics include the following:

  • strengths to rely on and obstacles to overcome
  • the science and rationale for using resistance training to improve metabolism and bone health
  • why protein matters and how you can ensure you get the amount you need each day
  • how to balance exercise with our daily priorities
  • how anti-inflammation, gut health, and carbohydrates are connected
  • sleep, stress, and strategies to overcome challenges

For questions or to register, please contact SportsPerformanceCenter@NYULangone.org.

Duration: 45 minutes
