Cycling
Cyclists and triathletes who want a baseline, a progress check or a clearer understanding of their aerobic fitness.
Running
Runners and triathletes looking for an aerobic-fitness baseline or a progress check.
The test should match the question you want answered. Runners usually choose the treadmill; cyclists choose the bike. Triathletes may benefit from understanding both disciplines. Results are specific to the exercise mode, protocol and effort on the day.
VO2max describes the highest rate of oxygen use reached during an exercise test. It is one useful part of your endurance profile, alongside your training history, threshold and ability to sustain effort.
At Endurance Lab, Tiago Dias uses VO2 Master and a bike test to assess your aerobic fitness. We explain what your result means for your current training and goals.
We discuss your training and goals, review suitability, explain the equipment and guide a progressive test. The appointment includes setup and a discussion of the findings, rather than an hour of continuous maximal exercise.
We explain your aerobic-fitness result alongside heart rate and pace or power. VO2peak describes the highest oxygen uptake recorded; whether it represents VO2max depends on the assessment evidence. One number does not describe all of your endurance performance.
Your measured aerobic-fitness result, an explanation of the test and practical guidance on how the findings can inform your training. For a fuller threshold picture, choose combined VO2max and lactate testing.
VO2 testing or lactate testing?
VO2 testing answers a question about aerobic capacity. Lactate testing helps examine your response to increasing intensity and inform training zones. A combined assessment is available when both questions matter. We explain which measures the protocol supports.
Bring suitable training clothing, water and your sport-specific footwear. Follow the instructions in your booking confirmation. Tell us about illness, injury or restrictions on exercise before your appointment so we can review suitability.
