Step 2 – How to prepare
To get the best results from your scan or assessment:
- Bring any recent blood test or blood pressure results
- Wear tight-fitting Lycra or suitable underwear (no loose clothing)
- Stay well hydrated
- Avoid exercise:
- 3 hours before a 3D body scan
- 24 hours before a full metabolic assessment
- Eat one light meal or fast before a 3D scan
- For a metabolic assessment: fast for 12 hours and avoid caffeine beforehand
What to expect – 3D & Bio-Impedance Scan
- The scan takes place in a private area of Body Torque Gym
- You’ll have a few minutes in private to change (if required)
- Alex Flint will complete the scan within around 15 minutes
- You’ll then have time to change into comfortable clothing (if required)
- At a minimum, you’ll receive a 15-minute interpretation of your results
- If you’ve booked the consultation option, Alex will also provide expert advice on your next steps
What to Expect – Full Metabolic Assessment
This test has two parts:
Step 1 – Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)
- Performed lying still with a specialist mask for 10–15 minutes
- Measures how many calories your body burns at rest
Step 2 – VO₂ Max Test
- Done on a treadmill or bike while wearing the same mask
- Measures your aerobic fitness as you exercise to your physical limit
As part of your body composition and metabolic testing, your results are sent to a lab for analysis. You’ll receive a full metabolic report plus recommendations based on your findings.
After your Scan and/or Assessment
What you take away depends on the service you’ve booked:
- At minimum: results emailed as a PDF
- With consultation/assessment: a summary of insights, recommendations, and next steps in PDF format. Alex Flint will also guide you through your results so you can apply them in your training and lifestyle
