GET THE DATA REQUIRED TO ACHIEVE ELITE PERFORMANCE

COMBINED THRESHOLD & VO2 TESTING

CombinedThreshold & VO2 Testing at GymTherapy provides data-driven and reliable insights into your running efficiency, mechanics, metabolism and performance. It combines both our VO2 Master, Lactate Pro Plus Meter and advanced analysis software (INSCYD), to gain valuable data about your thresholds, VO2 Max, metabolism utilisation rates (Fats vs Carbs), VLaMax and training zones. Specific speeds/paces are assessed to understand how your physiology change and guides specific training interventions to help you achieve your next personal best!

Combine these two physiological tests to obtain a fully comprehensive understanding of your endurance performance and capacity.
Your Lactate Threshold will determine your performance ability in endurance events. Your VO₂ Max will determine your performance potential/ceiling.
Pre-assessment and discussion of training/health goals, history & protocol
Combined Lactate Threshold (using INSCYD advanced software) & VO₂ Max testing - we begin with threshold testing and then have a short rest before starting VO2 Max testing  
Data analysis & reporting using elite software (INSCYD) to understands all aspects of your metabolism and performance.
Add on data-interpretation & training recommendations consult for just $110
IDEAL FOR:
Individuals training or competing in an endurance activity looking to gain an understanding of their performance limitations and how to maximise their training effectiveness. Essential for identifying your ideal race pace and accurate training zones which can be used to overcome training plateaus and optimise performance. The additional VO₂ data allows for determination of 3 key values: your maximal heart rate, your VO₂ max, and your running (if completed on treadmill) economy (VO₂ cost at sub-maximal intensities).

IDEAL FOR:
Individuals training or competing in any sport looking to gain an understanding of their performance limitations and how to maximise their training effectiveness. Additionally, for those looking to understand their cardiovascular health & longevity, VO₂ Max is highly correlated with longevity & heath. Our normative data allows for comparison based on your age/gender to determine how you compare, helping to inform training strategies.

You will learn about several aspects of your running performance including:

  • Lactate Threshold (LT2): The level above which pyruvate—an intermediate product of anaerobic metabolism—is produced faster than it can be used aerobically; unused pyruvate splits into lactate (lactic acid) and positively charged hydrogen ions; continued exercise above the lactate, or anaerobic, threshold results in accumulation of these ions—acidosis—causing exhaustion and intramuscular pain
  • VO2 Max: Is a measure of the body's capacity to maximally uptake oxygen from the environment and use it in skeletal muscle during intense full-body exercise (maximal oxygen consumption). It is considered the gold-standard measurement for cardiorespiratory fitness
  • Aerobic Threshold (LT1): The first lactate threshold, also known as LT1 or the aerobic threshold is used to demarcate zone 1 and 2. LT1 is defined as the lowest intensity at which there is a sustained increase in blood lactate concentration above resting values
  • Ventilatory Thresholds: Describes the relationship between physical exertion and ventilation. During VO2 Max testing, two key ventilatory thresholds (VT1 & VT2) are identified, which allows for specific training recommendations that improve these values moving forward.
  • Training Zones: Training zones are calculated based on the relationship between your VO2 Max, heart rate, and mechanical output (power/pace). By completing VO2 Max testing, it allows for accurate prescription of these training zones, optimising training and performance.
