Document Summary

You would get information on lactate threshold, vo2 and hr can be used see if it fits into something much longer like a 90 minute test. Cardiovascular drift accumulative response related to duration hr i(cid:374)creases e(cid:448)e(cid:374) though the (cid:449)ork rate does(cid:374)"t; that"s (cid:449)hy they had to keep decreasing the watts to keep the hr 5 beats below threshold hr. Vo2 max test plateauing of vo2 or no increase in vo2 with increase in work load. 3min warm up, work load inc. 25 watts - every. 3 min. (30 min) long test hard to stay motivated termination of test: cannot maintain. 60rpm reach 300 watts, the test will be long. Vo2 increases in a linear fashion below threshold and after threshold, the ventilation goes higher because of co2 and lactate concentration (co2 drives ventilation) On set of blood lactate; taking blood every last 15s = 4mmol. Endurance performance test = 90 min cycling; intensity increases during first.
