LACTATE TESTING

We provide comprehensive physiological testing for both runners and cyclist, GUESSING where training zones are, is no longer required with our lactate testing. The testing takes 1.5-2 hours and in that time we do:

​

• Lactate Profile Step Test: Power/ Pace is increased in regular steps, and a lactate sample is taken towards the end of each step. It will be used to plot a lactate curves determine approximations of LT1 (Aerobic threshold) and LT2 (Anaerobic threshold). This is a sub maximal test and full exhaustion will not be required. ​

​

       Post testing...

​

• You’ll get a physiological report after testing—easy to understand, with key results and training recommendations and gold standard training zones to support your development

​

If you spend a lot of time training outdoors then an outside test is suggested and similar if you spend a lot time training on the turbo an indoor test is reccomended.

Testing can be undertaken as a coached athlete or as a standalone exercise to gather data that can be implemented with your own coach.
