Hi Reed,

Thanks for the advice.

With regards to some of the points you make, the test did involve a gradual increase in speed and incline on a treadmill however we had to change the HRM due to the fluctuations in heart rate, so that would probably account for the early discrepancies in HR figures you noticed.

Also I only did a very quick warm up as we were pressed for time so the more I think about it the less I should pay attention to the results.

I think I’ll look into the HR drift test Scott suggested and see what that comes back with.

Many thanks to you for your help (and you too Scott 🙂 ), much appreciated.

Regards

Craig

Hi Reed & Scott,

Thanks a mil for your comments and links, much appreciated. I’ll look into them.

I was thinking the same that these test results show 144 and 177 as the two thresholds.

I did the same test 2 years ago and they were 126 and 172 so I resume this shows some sort of improvement, however I will be loading up on base building for the coming months as advised.

I’ve attached some more info from the test (if you can read it!), feel free to comment if it makes sense to you 🙂

Thanks again.

Craig
