The Running Rules Podcast

#78: VO2 max and lactate threshold explained and is it worth getting properly tested?


Listen Later

This episode is based on a question from listener Kevin who asked if I had ever had my VO2 max and lactate threshold tested and whether I would recommend it.



To help answer this question I dive into what the measurements actually are and how they translate to your fitness.



I talk about how you can measure or estimate these things and how you can train them to be 'better'. Finally I answer the question of whether accurate measurements are going to help you improve your running.



If you want to improve in your next race and want personalised help in training, nutrition and mindset designed to get you faster, further and stronger straight away, message me at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/therunningrules⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or see ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.therunningrules.com/coaching⁠
