STRESS TEST

During a stress test we establish the athlete’s VO2 max (maximal oxygen uptake). Oxygen consumption is the best way to determine the athlete’s capacity for aerobic exercise: a higher oxygen consumption is typical for well-trained athletes. Knowing the aerobic and anaerobic thresholds allows you to establish the ideal intensity for aerobic (prolonged activity) and anaerobic (H.I.I.T = high intensity) training to optimise performance and recommended competition paces.

ERGOSPIROMETRY

We carry out ergospirometry tests to study the athlete’s functional abilities, allowing us to monitor their evolution at different times of the season, giving athletes and coaches fundamental tools to personalise their training programmes.

VO2 MAX THRESHOLDS

During these tests, respiratory gases (oxygen inhalation and carbon dioxide exhalation) are analysed, giving us an accurate measurement of the athlete’s peak oxygen inhalation (VO2 max) and aerobic and anaerobic thresholds.

In addition, we also evaluate whether the response to exercise is physiological or if there is some kind of pathological alteration that could in some way limit or contraindicate the practice of sport.
