The full aerobic fitness assessment involves two tests – a submaximal lactate threshold test and a maximal oxygen consumption (VȮ2max) test. The first test that you will complete is a submaximal Lactate Threshold Test. In this submaximal test, the exercise intensity starts very light (a very light jog) and increases every 3 minutes. You will be required to wear a face mask (for the analysis of your inspired and expired air) and heart rate monitor (provided) throughout this test. At the end of each 3 minute stage, a small blood sample will be taken from your fingertip and analysed*. Your lactate response dictates when the test ends, but it typically involves fewer than ten 3-minute stages. This stage will involve approximately 30 minutes of sub-maximal exercise. * if you do not wish to have the blood samples taken, the test can be run with the collection of expired air only. We will be unable to measure your lactate threshold but will be able to provide an estimation of it.
