Sports testing endurance sports
The lactate test helps you determine your unique threshold areas to support your training.
Are you into cycling, triathlon or orienteering? Are you training for a half-marathon or a trail running event?
The lactate test determines the aerobic and anaerobic thresholds and identifies heart rate zones for different endurance ranges (basic endurance, speed endurance and maximum endurance). Lactate test results help optimise your training towards the right direction. You can choose between a level test on a running track or a threshold test with a bicycle ergometer. If you wish to do both the running and the cycling test, you will find a combination offer below.
The tests can also be carried out for small groups, so bring your friends along!
Orienteering
Level test
In the level test, the testee performs 5–7 1,000-meter runs on a 200-meter indoor running track at an accelerating pace so that maximum load is achieved on the final round. The level test is an excellent tool for tracking the development of endurance properties. You will receive feedback that specifies heart rate limits and threshold paces based on lactate concentrations to support endurance training. In addition, the test provides you with an estimate of your maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max) based on your maximum speed.
Price:
1–2 participants: €105 / person
3–6 participants: €95 / person
7+ participants: €89 / person
An additional fee of €15 per person applies to tests carried out on weekdays after 17:00 and on Saturdays.
Cycling
Threshold test
In the threshold test, the testee pedals 7–12 loads on a bicycle ergometer so that the power is increased in 3-minute intervals until the testee tires out. The test enables you to track the development of your endurance properties. The service also includes caliper-based body fat measurement and test feedback with heart rate limits and power thresholds. In addition, your maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max) is estimated based on your maximum performance.
Price:
1–2 participants: €105 / person
3–6 participants: €95 / person
7+ participants: €89 / person
An additional fee of €15 per person applies to tests carried out on weekdays after 17:00 and on Saturdays.
Triathlon
Combination test
If you are a triathlete, for example, and need threshold areas for both running and cycling, our combination package is the right choice. It enables you to optimise training in both sports through correct threshold areas.
The combination test includes a level test and a threshold test which are carried out on separate days within a month of each other.
Combination test price:
1–2 participants: €194 / person
3–6 participants: €180 / person
7+ participants: €175 / person
An additional fee of €15 per person applies to tests carried out on weekdays after 17:00 and on Saturdays.
