Hydrostatic Body Fat Testing

As body fat testing, rather than simple scale weight, has become "the standard" in this new millennium, Hydrostatic Testing (Underwater Weighing) has become universally regarded by industry experts as the "Gold Standard" in body fat testing. Renowned author and fitness expert Covert Bailey, in the phenomenal best seller "Fit or Fat", states: "That hydrostatic testing (underwater immersion) is the most accurate method for body fat determination."

According to research, "Hydrostatic Body Fat Testing "is still the "Gold Standard" to which all methods of body fat testing still compare themselves. FitnessWave has been the pioneer in hydrostatic testing for over eleven years. We strive to provide accurate and affordable hydrostatic testing to our clients with a professional touch. Fitnesswave makes hydrostatic body fat testing a fun experience for the whole family. So come and get dunked today!

RMR Testing (Resting Metabolic Rate)

Testing your metabolic rate will determine exactly how many calories you will need to cut to lose weight. It will determine if your weight problem is due to your metabolism. Then do a retest  to reveal if your metabolism has been
affected by dieting, and exercise. Let FitnessWave help guide you to the new you.

PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED. Stop by Club One, 2EC, Lobby Level to register. Appointments are from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. A bathing suit is required for the Hydrostatic Body Fat Testing. Use of Club One shower facilities are available.

The Bar Method is a unique hour-long class combining elements of yoga, isometrics, core strengthening, and ballet conditioning (that’s where the "Bar" comes in).  The full-body routine improves strength, stamina, flexibility, and even posture.  But it’s the Bar Method’s ability to dramatically re-shape the body with a tighter, more athletic appearance – especially in the “right” areas – that has created a near-fanatical following.
 
The Bar Method Downtown, is owned by two former Marina studio teachers, Heather Thompson and Hannah Blue.  They bring a wealth of experience to the enterprise, along with a host of devotees. Stop by and see for yourself what all the buzz is about!

For more information, please visit The Bar Method Downtown in Three Embarcadero Center, Lobby Level or call 415.956.0446.
