Metabolic testing - Running

Your physiological

profile ...down to the

smallest detail

Personalised analysis of VO2max, VLamax, fat and sugar burning, energy consumption and ideal pace for long distances.

 

Our metabolic test goes a step further than the lactate test.

By performing additional tests, we can determine your metabolic profile. In addition to your anaerobic threshold, this test also allows us to determine your VO2max (endurance capacity) and your VLaMax (resistance capacity). From there, your energy consumption can be calculated and we can draw up a very accurate energy and pacing plan for your competition.

Tip: combine this metabolic test with a sweat test to get a complete picture of both your energy and hydration needs.

What​

  • Measurement of energy consumption at different speeds

  • VO2max & VLamax analysis

  • Calculation of race pace & nutrition strategy

  • Insight into ‘endurance runner profile’

For who​​

  • Marathon runners & ultra-runners

  • Triathletes focused on running efficiency

  • Athletes who want to improve performance without additional training

  • Runners who experience energy dips during long endurance runs

Wat brengen we in kaart?

  • Jouw capaciteit: We meten de energieverbranding bij verschillende snelheden en bepalen de maximale uithoudingscapaciteit (VO2​max) en weerstandscapaciteit (VLamax).

  • Jouw brandstofverbruik: Je krijgt een gedetailleerde analyse van jouw vet- en suikerverbranding, wat essentieel is voor een optimaal "duurloperprofiel".

  • Jouw wedstrijdstrategie: Op basis van het berekende verbruik stellen we een nauwkeurig energieplan en de ideale tempo's voor jouw lange afstand op.

 

Is dit iets voor jou?

Deze test is onmisbaar voor marathon- en ultralopers of triatleten die hun loopefficiëntie willen maximaliseren. Het biedt de oplossing voor hardlopers die energiedips ervaren tijdens lange duurlopen of die hun prestaties willen verbeteren zonder simpelweg meer trainingsuren te maken.
