Welcome to Metatest!

The Best way to lose weight and get fit!

Our goal at Metatest is to help you make smart nutritional and training choices. These smart nutritional choices include not only your daily eating but also your training and racing nutrition. Whether you are an accomplished athlete or someone trying to change their body image, you can always benefit from the knowledge that metabolic testing will give you. Anyone who has dieted and trained knows that guessing can be very frustrating. At Metatest, we remove the guess work and give you facts that will help map out your training plan to achieve the positive results that you are looking for. Having these facts about your nutritional requirements can make the difference between achieving your goal or not.

Before and After:

Check out these transformations from some real Metatest clients:

Jason was 37 years old, 6' 3", 265 lbs and in bad health. His cholesterol was through the roof and as he says, he was, "way too familir with the local Dominos guy." In an effort to keep himself off of medications and give his wife and children the role model that they deserved he made some very healthy life changes which resulted in a quick 40lb weight loss. It also started to get his competitive juices flowing and he went on an 18 month journey that included all distances of triathlon including an Ironman. He did this all on his own but realized that there was a lot that he did not know about training so he signed up for Metabolic Testing and Triathlon Training with Metatest. He wanted to be healthier and more competitive. After 4 months of training with Metatest, Jason has dropped another 30 lbs (in the low 180's for the after picture), taken 20 seconds per 100 meters off of his swim times, and has gone from 10 minute per running mile to sub 7 minutes. He could not believe it when he won his age group in a serious triathlon after just 4 months of dedicated training with Metatest. He credits his stronger core, better nutrition, and all around better lifestyle for this fantastic performance. We credit his positive disposition and unwavering dedication. Congratulation on the fantastic transformation!!! Let's see what Jason can do next while traveling down this new path!

Kevin used the testing information and lessons from the Metatest staff to help in losing over 160 lbs!!  Kevin will be the first to tell you that he did not "DIET" and that he truly enjoys the changes that he made in his life.

Our Story:

Metatest was founded by Samantha and Jared Sweet. After losing 140lbs, Samantha became a USAT triathlete and certified fitness trainer. As a college athlete while earning her advanced degree in Sports Medicine, Sam learned the sciences behind metabolism, VO2, and body composition testing from a practical and classroom perspective.  This has changed her life and allowed her to achieve her goals while giving her a unique perspective for teaching others how to succeed in fitness and life.  Jared is triple certified in Wellness, Corporate Wellness, and Lifestyle and Weight Management.  Together, Samantha and her husband, Jared, can teach you the science that they have learned and lived to give you the facts that you need to succeed.

At Metatest we believe that meeting your goals includes:

• Body Composition testing - With the Futrex 6100 A/ZL we can give you a baseline of where your body is today and continue to track your changes as you progress toward your goals. Knowing where you are is the best way of knowing where you are going to be.
  
• Metabolic (RMR) Testing -Ensures that you are eating the right amounts at the right times. This testing will put you on the proper nutritional plan and track the changes in your metabolism and keep you on the right track to your goal.
  
• VO2 Sub Max testing - Gives you your heart rate ranges for achieving your performance and weight management goals when working out. It is not true that a harder workout is always the best workout. A smarter workout, utilizing the knowledge of aerobic threshold and anaerobic threshold from a VO2 sub-max test, will get you the results that you are looking for.
