Full Lactate assessment for this week.

Excited to see this lad progress this season, plenty of gains inbound

Progression can only be achieved if your health and well-being is taken into consideration. This is why we Integrate a HRV (stress mapping) approach when planning and setting training. Using technology commonly found in most smart watches or HR monitors we can reduce the chance of injury/illness and maximise your fitness progression.

What is lactate shuttling?

Lactate shuttling is the bodies ability to transport lactate from fast twitch fibre to be used (oxidised) within the slow twitch muscle fibres. This is a crucial performance metric within endurance sport. Traditional performance testing methods can not provide this insight into your physiology.

It was great to see coached rider Chris Opie back in the peloton at the Perfs Pedal Road Race a few weekends back. 15th place in typical damp Perfs weather, a great result.

After his recent Lactate dynamics assessment we’ve been adopting a highly focused plan, focusing on improving his Lactate buffering abilities when working at and above his threshold. We’ve also been keeping lots of variety in Chris’s training to suit his season goals.

What is lactate? Why should we measure it?

Lactate is a bi-product of glucose metabolisation. As we increase the intensity at which we exercise the concentration of lactate within the blood increases. By monitoring the threshold and rate of accumulation, the maximal steady state, the maximal concentration and the rate of clearance, we can look under the bonnet of an athletes physiology and paint a clear picture into the most effective way moving forward

The average cyclist will spend between 200-500 hours per year riding. Investing into understanding your unique physiology is therefore key. Lactate testing can provide the valuable insight needed to maximising progression, fitness and enjoyment.

The fact that strength training for cyclists is still being debated within traditional sporting environments baffles us. Given the profound positives found within the research, suggest that all cyclists and endurance athletes should include this within their training regime. With shorter days and poor weather upon us, now is the perfect time to start!

A busy weekend of off-road racing for coached athletes. Jack narrowly missing out on a top 10 at Gatwick Cross after a last lap puncture.

Chris picked up a very impressive third at the Gorrick Halloween XC classic.

in the lab for a 360 degree lactate profile & re-test.

It has been great to open the lab and get the first few athletes in. Jack is a talented road racer with plenty of depth to his fitness. It was immediately apparent that his aerobic capabilities was a serious standout strength and we were able to pinpoint with accuracy the areas of his physiology that needed to be worked on over the winter. Which when using a traditional % of ftp zone system would not have been possible.

We look forward to adopting a specific and individualised plan with Jack this winter before a re-rest during his pre season to quantify his improvements.
