SCHEDULE LACTATE THRESHOLD TEST

Lactate threshold testing is one of the best services we offer athletes right here at the store. Blood lactate threshold testing is used by many of the world’s leading athletes to help determine key training metrics like:

• appropriate training zones by heart rate, power, and/or pace.
• gauge changes in fitness
• determine maximum fat-burning zones
• dial in ideal race-pacing 

The protocol for a lactate threshold test requires you to conduct a challenging bicycle workout on our smart trainer. We record your heart rate, blood lactate levels, and perceived exertion throughout the test. Small amounts of blood will be drawn from the finger or ear lobe. After the test is complete, we will walk you through the results in detail, explaining how to use your test results in your day to day training and racing.
