Description

Cycling or Running Training Zone Assessment (VO2max Test)

The Training Zone Assessment includes VO2max and Muscle Oxygen Saturation (SmO2) tests.  VO2max measures the maximum amount of oxygen a person can utilize during intense exercise. It is generally regarded as the best indicator of cardiorespiratory fitness. This assessment determines your cardiovascular fitness, aerobic endurance, and individual training zones.
 
Testing results include:
  • VO2MAX value
  • Aerobic and Anaerobic thresholds
  • Optimal heart rate, power, and pace training intensities
  • 20-min Coaching Consult
You will conduct the cycling test on a Wahoo Kickr Snap ergometer with your bike. Please bring your trainer adapter if your bike uses a non-standard Quick Release Skewer (QRS) or thru-axel. We will provide the following:
  • 12 x 142 mm thru-axle (Standard Road Bike with disc brakes)
  • 130 mm QRS (Standard Road Bike with rim brakes)
