The Vitality Index
Discover what percentage of your potential for peak vitality and performance you are currently accessing, and how much more we can guide you to explore!
Your Vitality Index has 4 key categories:
Each of these categories are comprised of specific assessment results called biomarkers. Each biomarker has unique relevance and significance to your state of vitality and functional health, and each has an impressive body of research behind its correlation with the aging process, disease risk, and longevity.
Our Vitality Index is modular. Our algorithms adapt to the data you make available. This means you may simply use your Vitality Index to assess and trend select biomarkers across time. For example, just your body composition, your functional strength, or your nervous system performance using our StateCheck app.
Each biomarker you choose to assess will provide insight into important trends and prove to be valuable!
Functional Strength Index
Trends in strength and muscle mass provide vital feedback on our nutrition, exercise, sleep, recovery, metabolic changes, ageing process and disease risk. We have developed an approach to the assessment of functional strength that is as simple, practical and universally applicable as it is profoundly useful in tracking, trending and improving our members’ health and vitality.
No equipment required.
ANS Performance Index
The function of our autonomic nervous system (ANS) reveals a great deal about our resiliency, ability to adapt, and maintain our health. This Index provides the feedback required to track how your ANS is responding to the life choices you are making and empower you to fine tune your lifestyle to your personal goals, in real time.

Body & Cell Index
Our goal has been to support people in understanding that there are no actual “weight” issues, only body composition, shape, and related health issues. Our weight is a very poor marker for our health. Body composition and shape, on the other hand, are exceptional markers of our health.
Shape biomarkers readily assessed at home. Body composition and cellular integrity biomarkers—including muscle mass, fat mass, and body water distribution—assessed at V-Metrics Certified Assessment Centers.
CV Performance Index
Cardiovascular (CV) diseases have garnered a great deal of attention in our culture due to their commonality and their frequently catastrophic and even deadly consequences. All have been correlated, to greater or lesser extent, with modifiable lifestyle habits. This Index has been developed to empower you to not only reduce your risk to CV disease, but to improve more broadly on your vitality and well-being.
