Hydrostatic Body Fat Testing

Hydrostatic Body Fat Testing is universally considered "The Gold Standard" of body fat testing, to which all other methods still compare. When you lose weight, it is essential that you lose body fat, not muscle. Muscle loss can slow down your metabolism, making it harder to lean up. Periodic testing using our database program will help you compare and graph your short and long term fitness goals. You will receive a seven-page personalized printout that will give you the tools you need to succeed! 

Resting Metabolic Rate Testing (RMR)

Is your Metabolism fast or slow? By testing your unique metabolic rate, we can help you understand why you have had difficulty losing weight in the past and how you can be successful in the future. Your metabolic rate will be used to calculate your Target Caloric Zones. With the target zones, all the talk about "cutting calories" and "burning fat" will finally make sense as it applies to you. Metabolic Testing tells you exactly HOW to tip the scales in your favor!

VO2 Sub-Max Testing

VO2 testing reveals the exercise level that will optimize your ability to burn fat or to increase your cardio strength. Trained athletes have more endurance because their bodies can utilize higher levels of oxygen. The higher your VO2 the faster and more efficiently you will be doing your favorite aerobic activities. Let us measure your rate of success!

Since adding the Half Marathon, we have received many inquiries about switching from the half to the full marathon and the full to the half marathon.  If you are thinking about switching, we want to alert you of ourChanging Races Policy so you can make the official change before it’s too late!  This will ensure that you will receive the appropriate shirt, medal, and race bib.

If you want to switch for free, you must do so before the March 6th deadline.  After March 6th a monetary service charge will be assessed.  Read more about the policy. 

Thank you in advance for your cooperation as we prepare for the big day on Sunday, June 6th.  See you in San Diego!

The June 6 Rock ’n’ Roll San DiegoMarathon and Half Marathon will finish at SeaWorld.

Scott Dickey, president of Competitor Group Inc., owner of the road races, confirmed the new site.

“We feel it’s an incredible opportunity to put together the premier tourist attraction in the market with the premier special event, the Rock ’n’ Roll Marathon,” Dickey said.

The Rock ’n’ Roll Marathon finished at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot the past nine years. MCRD barracks expansion necessitated the new finish.

SeaWorld represents one of many changes with the event, which started in 1998.

For the first time, race day will feature a half marathon and marathon. In the past, the marathon has been capped at about 20,000 entrants.
