What's your "real" threshold? How to set your FTP
In-class Lactate Testing. We used the simplicity of a lactate test during the class to gauge if your FTP was set correctly. -
What kind of Burner are you?
Whether you generate lactate ease or have the ultra athlete fat burning profile, we recommend getting your individual lactate curve assessed. 2 mmol or not 2 mmol? Should you train at the this magical number or not? The test takes about 1 hour to complete including a 30 min warm-up. Take the guesswork out of determining your best aerobic training zone this off-season. -
Baseline Testing, What Should You Do?
Some of you simply need a refresher on your FTP power as it's been a few years since we did a proper assessment. Some of you want to know your LT1 which is the best zone for fat burning and aerobic training. If you have these numbers already, what about your metabolism? The Resting Metabolic Rate has had a resurgence with individuals looking to improve their digestion and metabolism.
