The LEAP Lab is equipped with laboratory and field-based tools designed to measure physiological function, performance, recovery, and wellness. Our equipment supports both controlled in-lab testing and real-world monitoring to better understand health, fitness, and sport performance.
If you are interested in LEAP Lab services or equipment-supported testing, please email us at humanperformancelab@eou.edu.
The lab utilizes metabolic cart and portable VO₂ analysis systems to measure oxygen consumption, energy expenditure, and cardiorespiratory response during both resting and exercise conditions.
Chest strap monitors and heart rate variability systems are used to assess cardiovascular response, recovery, stress, and autonomic nervous system activity in both lab and field settings.
Point-of-care devices are available for blood glucose, hemoglobin, and related physiological markers to provide rapid feedback on metabolic and exercise-related status.
Hydration tools include urine specific gravity testing with the Atago Urinalysis Pen, along with sweat analysis technologies that help estimate sweat rate and electrolyte loss.
The lab uses bioelectrical impedance technology and body weight scales to estimate lean mass, fat mass, and body weight for health and performance tracking.
Field-based performance tools such as the Just Jump jump pad are used to measure lower-body power, jump height, and repeated jump performance.
The LEAP Lab maintains wearable technologies for longer-term monitoring, including Oura Ring, Dexcom Stelo continuous glucose monitors, H-Drop sweat analyzers, heart rate and GPS watches, HeartMath HRV monitors, and the Lumos sleep mask.
Sleep and recovery equipment supports monitoring of sleep quality, sleep timing, circadian rhythm, and recovery patterns in real-world settings.
The lab also has resisted breathing devices designed to support breathing mechanics and respiratory muscle training.
