I came to ElitePerformanceNI to get my body composition assessed. I was coming back from injury and wanted to check my current lean muscle and body fat levels before pre-season began. The assessment of body composition and resting metabolic rate allowed for a detailed report on the calories required for training which will fuel my performance for the season ahead.
