Cardiometabolic Assessment and Training Laboratory

About the Lab

The Cardiometabolic Assessment and Training Laboratory (CATLab) is equipped for the measurement of many cardiometabolic and pulmonary variables. The CATLab is equipped with two Trackmaster treadmills, a cycle ergometer, a Concept 2 rowing machine, and a Velotron bicycle. The lab contains two Cosmed Quark CPET systems with resting metabolic rate capability and a 12-lead ECG system for stress testing. The lab contains a standalone Q-NRG system for resting metabolic rate assessment. The lab is capable of performing Wingate cycling tests for anaerobic power and blood lactate analyses.
