Choose the metabolic profile that matches your training question.
INSCYD brings performance data and, depending on the assessment, oxygen uptake or blood lactate together in a metabolic model. Endurance Lab explains which inputs are measured, which outputs are modelled and how the findings can inform your training.
PPD uses maximal performance efforts without gas analysis or blood samples. The VO₂ option combines gas analysis and performance data; the lactate option combines blood lactate, power or pace and heart rate. The Complete option brings these inputs together.
The portal offers bike or run assessments. Add your preferred discipline in the booking notes and follow the protocol-specific preparation instructions. The time shown is the full appointment allowance, including setup and discussion.
The model can inform a discussion of aerobic capacity, glycolytic capacity, thresholds and fuel use according to the protocol. Modelled outputs are not all direct measurements. We explain the inputs, assumptions and limits rather than presenting every number as an independently measured fact.
Use your profile to discuss training priorities, pacing and the demands of your goal event. The interpretation considers your current programme and sport. Endurance Lab uses a seven-zone coaching system, with intensity guidance connected to the evidence available.
Current prices, appointment availability and payment are shown in the portal before booking.
