Anaerobic ThresholdDuring the last nearly 50 years, the blood lactate curve and lactate thresholds (LTs) have become important in the diagnosis of endurance performance. An intense and ongoing debate emerged, which was mainly based on terminology and/or the physiological background of LT concepts. ...
(7) Additionally, by picking up the pace you could actually improve your rate of recovery. Studies have shown that maximum blood lactate clearance occurs closer to your lactate threshold, meaning that you can reduce the soreness you experience after a workout just by walking at a brisker pace...
Newer athletes or those inexperienced at a particular type of interval need to learn how to pace their efforts. Jumping straight into a 20-minute lactate threshold interval is difficult. Athletes don’t know how to predict what they’ll feel like or be able to sustain 20 minutes later. Eight...
Normalising your power output to your body weight can provide a better means of assessing your ability over hilly terrain and comparing your performance to other cyclists. Here, we’ll look at how to calculate your own power-to-weight ratio, how to improve it and what effect that improvement ...

The simplest answer is to turn to the tried and true pace clock or stopwatch. But effective use of the pace clock first requires determining your training pace zones. To determine your pace zones, we first need to find your lactate threshold pace—i.e., what is commonly called your “T...
To calculate your speed, simply divide the distance swam by the time it took to complete that distance (Speed = distance swam/ swim time) So if, for instance, you want to find your speed per lap, it would be: Speed = length of lap/ lap time. If you want to find your total speed...
How to test your FTP 2 important ways to build your FTP Establishing your training rhythm Episode Outline: Intro: The concept of a “Threshold” has many nuanced forms and definitions in the world of physiology. There’s Lactate Threshold, Onsite of Blood Lactate Accumulation, Ventilatory Threshol...
One common method is to determine your maximum heart rate (220 minus your age), then calculate 60 to 70 percent of that number—that’s your aerobic threshold, the very top of your Zone 2 range. Another popular method is the MAF formula, developed by Phil Maffetone, which suggests ...
deliver a huge training effect by increasing your maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 max),raising your lactate threshold, and improving your economy, and this can translate to burning more fat at higher intensities. ButHIIT workoutsdon’t ultimately burn an impressive number of calories while you’re...
