Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is the reference standard for the direct measurement of maximal oxygen uptake (VO₂ max) and the precise determination of ventilatory thresholds (VT1 and VT2) in cycling, key markers of aerobic performance. Our incremental cycling protocol was scientifically validated against laboratory ergospirometry in a cohort of trained cyclists. The results were published in NPJ …
Understanding the science behind exercise testing and training intensity zones is key to optimizing performance for endurance athletes. At CHASKi, we emphasize the value of data-driven training based on ventilatory thresholds, and today we’ll explore why testing and threshold-based training are so impactful. We’ll also dive into a cyclist’s case study, showcasing how CHASKi helped …
