Anaerobic Threshold Testing
September 19, 2008
There are numerous establishments, which are equipped to carry out Anaerobic Threshold test. Tests are undertaken under laboratory conditions. It is considered to be the most precise method of concluding a person’s Anaerobic Threshold. The test in slightly expensive demands check of regular blood samples to assess the amount of lactate in the blood while working out for the test. It is also essential to test VO2 maximum and highest limit of heart rate.
But theses kind of test may not be preferred generally by regular exercisers. The sports person or athletes may demand it more. So, the anaerobic threshold can be determined in other ways. It could be a possibility that these methods are not very precise. It may not suit to every individual. But in such methods also the monitor is vital to record heart rate.
For threshold testing, a 10km complete run or race is require, which is a simple but huge stamina requiring method. The distance can be covered around the threshold heart rate. But to heart rate as frequently as possible and the mile splits should be recorded. Fit individuals run faster and are able to maintain a constant heart rate. The unfit individuals may experience a falling heart rate and a rising rate of respiration leading to a reduced pace. It may result in burning sensation in legs. As soon as these signs are visible while running one should check the monitor to see the threshold. Do rest a day before and also try to relax for a few days after.
The Conconi Test is also used to determine anaerobic threshold. But the accuracy of the test may show some defects. One of the other tests is based on the educational determination depending on a guess or supposition that the AT ranges between 75% and 85% of the maximum heart rate (MHR)
