The Endurance Athlete’s Guide to VO2max and Lactate Tests
Find out all the dos and don’ts of physiological testing as we break down VO2max and lactate/ramp testing.
Humans aren’t machines—we’re much more complicated. Exercise physiology involves changes in the body from exercise and rest.
From anaerobic threshold to environmental acclimatization, from FTP to PGC-1 alpha, we explore the science of human performance.
Find out all the dos and don’ts of physiological testing as we break down VO2max and lactate/ramp testing.
We explore the physiology of race season—how to find top-end fitness, how long it takes, and the best ways to do it.
Your lactate threshold may not be what you think it is. Coach Trevor Connor explores the true definition of this physiological turn point.
Environmental physiologist Dr. Stephen Cheung addresses whether the amount of fat and carbohydrate used for energy changes with the temperature.
While VO2max is well studied, VLamax is a relatively new concept. Understanding the relationship between the two measures will help you better define your training.
In this Q&A episode, guest Grant Holicky discusses sweat rate, polarized training for cyclocross, VLamax, and recovery tools.
In episode 67 we talked with Sebastian Weber about the concepts of VO2max and VLamax. Now, we discuss how to balance the two systems.
This episode we take a close look at Sebastian Weber’s concept of VLamax to improve your training.
