LACTATE PROFILE
TESTING
A Lactate Profile is a performance testing protocol used to gain an enhanced understanding into your physiology. By collecting lactate markers at set intensities whilst monitoring the peak and drop of lactate. We can build a full insight into how your energy systems are fuelling your performance. Understanding where you currently are within your sporting journey is fundamental before you can plan a road map for achieving a goal. This is why we believe that when we remove assumption and enhance our understanding into an athlete we can progress more effectively.
What is a Lactate profile test?
Creating Synergy between your physiology and the demands of your event
WHAT TO EXPECT?
-
Step 1. (Pre testing consultation)
Our remote Pre testing consultation allows us to gain insight into you as an athlete. This insight will help us maximise the time and resources during the lab visit.
-
Step 2. (Lab Visit)
The lab visit will last around 2hours (45-60min of activity), capturing insight from the aerobic and anaerobic energy systems through a comprehensive testing protocol. We also look closely into how you recover from and clear lactate at set exercise intensities.
-
Step 3. (Post testing guidance)
Our vision is to make cutting edge practices that are seen within the top tier of sport accessible to everyone. This is why the comprehensive post test report is one of the focus points of the testing procedure. Our qualified physiologist will analyse the data and provide easy to understand guidance so you can go away with the knowledge needed to progress and develop.
