i live in the Bay Area (california) and i'm looking for an exercise clinic where i can get the following done: max heart rate (treadmill), VO2 max, anaerobic threshold (lactic threshold).

Does anyone know where i can get this done? thanks.

I'd start by checking with your local university. They should have a kinesiology department you can talk to and see if they have these kinds of tests, and if they don't, ask them to recommend a lab in the area.

Raffy-D,

There are a couple of places you can check:

Jay Gump at Incline Training (http://www.incline-training.com/Testing.htm) in Menlo Park

Dr. Massimo (Max) Testa of the Sports Medicine Department of UC Davis Medical
Center
