My two cents:

Yes you can get ME from running. Z3 or VO2MAX intervals have a huge effect on ME. You don’t get these from Z2 runs. UA philosophy is to train long and slow so ME must come from some sort of training. This is what the ME workouts are for. And the gym ME is very universal since you do not depend on hills.

Happy to discuss though.

SkiMo is for racing for about an hour close to AnT. So probably not so special for your traverse ? I would choose ski traverse.

Strength training can cause hypertrophy and better intramuscular coordination. Hypertrophy is caused through growth of the muscle cell. This happens mainly sarcoplasmic or myofibrillar.

Just for clarification: this has barely anything to do with mitochondria. FT fibers barely have any mitochondria (that’s why they generate lactate when used).

What kinda test did you want to perform?

Hi,

If you don’t require a lab test, I would be happy to help with the maximal runs.

I have a very good idea where my AeT is, AnT should be in a range of 5bpm. DF Alpha1 works really good for me and I can provide these values for both runs instead if you like.

Just out of curiosity, how are you trying to do this? Simple regression?

I might have something for you: https://youtu.be/Am0fnK2A0aY?si=lzT66Z_–sjG-y2p

It’s in German but maybe translation works here.

The only issue I might see is that you lack enough carbohydrates. If you fuel sufficiently I don’t see a problem. The adoptions through training are very local.

Probably heat related

Sorry forgot to answer and since I stumbled across this article I remembered our conversation:

Studies Are (Again) Showing How Badly Athletes Need Carbs

I rely on dynamic AeT measurement through DFA a1 HRV. This should capture your changing AeT due to heat.

Yes, at AnT the lactate shuttle is becoming the limiting factor

First of all, fasted training is outdated. It brings more harm than benefits.

When I’m completely running on fat and have used up all my carbs then I hit a fat burning wall. It’s around 5 bpm lower than my AeT depending on the sport.

Yes, you can burn glycogen when fasted since you have around 500g of glycogen in your muscles and 100g in your liver. So let’s asume, you burn 60g of carbs per hour and the glycogen storages are 100% full (which the are not after fasting) then you can go around 6h burning glycogen.

MAF thresholds are for beginners who don’t know their real thresholds.

My two cents:

1. Sometimes these higher HRs are temporary at the beginning of the new training (e.g., start of the skimo season). It reverts back to familiar levels after 2-3 trainings

2. What you said about upper body involvement plus different sports have different thresholds.

So retest your AeT with poles and then apply the different AeTs for the specific sport.

Cheers
