Blood Lactate Testing
Blood lactate is a bi-product of anaerobic respiration and, above a certain level, can inhibit muscular function and cause discomfort or even muscle damage.
Blood lactate testing provides a quick and easy procedure for coaches and athletes to identify changes during physical stress. Measuring and interpretating blood lactate readings allows fitness professionals to structure training routines in a way that can lead to an increase in the intensity and duration of physical activity.
An increase in intensity levels and duration helps optimise the development of the anaerobic energy system which can result in improved athletic performance.
