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.
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.
