So at threshold (158bpm) according to today's tests my VO2 is 70.5 ml/mn/kg.
I tapped out at 162bpm with VO2 at 75ish... although the team weren't sure this was accurate due to the nature of the test (which only went up to 16k/h on the treadmill & then increased gradient gradually up to 10%... not something I've practiced). I also felt v tired at start of test...
162 seems v. Low. Although looking back at when I last wore a monitor for 2ks the highest average was 162... so u never know.
HR zones seem accurate though, with 126, 142 and 158.
Thoughts?
