Functional &Physicalat Lifecore

Objective measurement of strength, mobility, balance, body composition and movement quality, the physical foundations of a long, capable life.

Functional & Physical at Lifecore

Measure the body you want to keep.

How you move, how strong you are and how your body is composed are some of the most powerful predictors of healthy ageing. Our functional and physical assessments measure them objectively so the training, nutrition and rehabilitation plan you follow is built around real data.

Feel restored from within.

Objective strength testing across the major movement patterns to inform programming and track progress.

The Lifecore Difference

Most physical assessments end with a printout. Ours end with a written plan that the gym and clinic floor are already organised around.

That is what turns a measurement into a meaningful change in how you train, recover and protect the body you want to keep.

Frequently asked

Questions about functional and physical assessment.

A few of the questions our guests ask most often. If you would like to explore something specific, our physicians are happy to talk it through with you.

  • Anyone training seriously, anyone planning a longevity programme, and anyone returning from injury or surgery.

  • Most full assessments take around 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the panel selected.

  • Yes. Findings translate directly into a written training, mobility or rehabilitation plan.

  • DEXA uses very low-dose radiation and is considered very safe for repeated longitudinal use.

  • Most clients retest every six to twelve months to track progress objectively.
