Lactate Testing
Why Test?
The number one area for potential of improvement we see in analyzing historical training data of athletes is the removal of the so called "Grey Zone". Many athletes either use some arbitrary formula to determine heart rate zones (not taking into account the unique nature of the individual ), don't know their heart rate zones or simply do not test in a regular manner. As a result of the above the easy days are not easy enough, the hard days are not hard enough, progress is limited and the athlete's true potential is not met. Accurate heart rate zones assist the athlete in optimizing training time available by ensuring the intensity goals of the workouts are met. In addition accurate testing is a very useful tool in establishing an athlete's progress in certain areas of their training. Simply put, in order to maximize your training time and improve performance, it is critical to train at the correct intensity and using a heart rate monitor enables an athlete to remove the guess work from this.
