PHYSIOLOGICAL PERFORMANCE PROFILE
The Physiological Performance Profile is a powerful tool to analyze, modulate, and predict endurance performance in athletes. It tells us how and why you may be able to run at a given speed, finish a race in a given time, what type of fuel you utilize, how much fuel you may need and much more!
PHYSIOLOGICAL PERFORMANCE PROFILE TESTING
WHAT'S INCLUDED:
-
1:30hr testing session
-
Physiological performance markers report
-
Personalized training zones
-
How to improve areas/markers you may need to target to achieve your needs/goals.
-
Fat vs. Carbs fuel contribution at different intensities, so you know how to properly fuel a given session.
-
Sweat and Electrolyte Loss
-
Performance predictor based on your target race as to what you could do today and compared to what you could do if you improve your specific markers needs.
-
Individualize fueling plan for your target event based on your actual fat/carbohydrate combustion, sweat rate for fluids replenishment, and electrolyte loss for proper replenishment.
-
30 min Zoom call to review the report, provide implementation suggestions and answer any questions.
PHYSIOLOGICAL PERFORMANCE PROFILE
The profile identifies important performance markers such as: aerobic capacity, glycolytic capacity, lactate threshold, the energy cost of motion, fuel contribution (Fat vs. Carbohydrate), lactate accumulation & clearance, and more. Identifying these metrics will benefit your training schedule and boost your performance with a scientific foundation and a practical approach to your program.
This comprehensive in-depth look at the layers of your physiology will allow you to make more effective training & racing decisions ranging from what type of training may yield you greater fitness gains for your specific needs/goals, what sort of pacing you may need to achieve optimal performance or what type of fuel sources you may need given your metabolic system
Markers identified in your profile:
-
VO2max – maximum aerobic capacity
-
VLamax – maximum glycolytic capacity
-
Lactate Threshold
-
Accumulation of Lactate and how quick you can recover from it
-
Fat combustion aka FatMax
-
Carbohydrate combustion
-
Metabolic Efficiency – how much energy you need at a given speed/power
-
Fuel Contribution (Fat vs Carbohydrates)
-
Sweat & Electrolyte loss
