Description
Are you getting the most out of your riding? Could those nagging aches be related to your bike fit ? Use this package of tests to determine your current fitness levels and then map out a plan to achieve your cycling goals. Lance Armstrong used these to win the Tour de France - what could you do ??
VO2 Max Testing VO2 max is an indicator of your aerobic potential and an opportunity to see where you fall in the fitness spectrum. This test measures oxygen uptake by monitoring oxygen and carbon dioxide in expired air as you reach your maximum exercise workload. Lactate Threshold Testing Lactate threshold is one of the most important physiological markers for training and success in endurance sports. By measuring the lactate levels in blood samples taken during a ramping cycling test performed on an SRM Ergometer, we can determine your maximum sustainable performance capacity. The data collected during the test (lactate, heart rate, and power) will be used to establish your lactate threshold, as well as specific heart rate and power training intensities to help you improve your sport-specific performance. Bike Fit Does your bike really fit you? The pros at Carmichael Training Systems will help you determine the perfect fit for performance and comfort.
