Why Fitness Testing?
If you’re a cyclist, triathlete or runner, it might be to win specific races, win your age group or place better. Maybe you’re just looking to set a Personal Record (PR) in your favorite century, triathlon or marathon. Or perhaps your goals are to maintain a certain body weight and fitness level.

Determine Your Unique Power & Heart Rate Training Zones.
Whatever your goals might be, you stand a much better chance of reaching them by training according to a plan within Heart Rate and/or Power-based zones determined from your body’s unique metabolic profile. A cardio-metabolic Fitness test (or VO2 Max – Power/HR – LT Threshold test) is the most accurate way of determining your training zones.
Some athletes have their own coaches. These coaches all prescribe workouts that have you train for certain amounts of time in specific energy zones. Some people self-train by following the books of many nationally-known coaches such as Joe Friel, Chris Carmichael, Hunter Allen and Andrew Coggin to name a few. But no matter your approach, before devising any training plan, you must know the training zones unique to YOUR PHYSIOLOGY and current fitness level.

Your Training Zones
Your training zones can be determined in one of two ways: a lab test or a field test. In the past, the argument against lab testing was that it was very expensive and that quality labs were few and far between.
Power 2 the Pedals VO2 Lab (P2P) changes all this.

What is a Cardio-Metabolic Fitness Test
(VO2 Max – Power/HR – LT Threshold)?
A comprehensive Cardio-Metabolic Fitness Test is considered by many to be the “gold standard” of fitness assessments for endurance athletes. Each individual, regardless of their age or fitness level, has a unique cardio/power metabolic profile.
Advantages of a Lab Test

FTP Wattage

Heart Rate at Anaerobic Threshold (AT)
Also called Lactate Threshold (LT) Critical Metric

VO2 at LT

Max Heart Rate

Maximum Power

Efficiency

Controlled Environment
Environmental conditions are controlled so that the test is highly repeatable (enabling valid comparisons between tests to track fitness progression)

Experienced Physiologist
The entire test is conducted by a highly trained and experienced exercise physiologist at your side

Affordable
Several parameters are measured in order to determine LT. They include: lactate levels (though not as measured directly through blood samples), heart rate (HR), power output (wattage), oxygen consumed (VO2), carbon dioxide exhaled (VCO2), and breathing rate / volume of air moved (VE).

If you are serious about reaching your fitness or sport-specific goals, then you should be training in specific heart rate or power zones according to a plan.
The only way to know your training zones is to be tested!
