A cycle ergometer test without lactate gives you a clear picture of your endurance fitness level. The test is suitable for individuals and groups alike, including fitness enthusiasts, athletes, workplaces, teams and other groups who want to assess their aerobic performance without lactate measurement.
The test can be carried out as either a maximal or a submaximal test. The submaximal test is a good option when you don’t want to push all the way to exhaustion. During the test you cycle against an increasing load, with the resistance typically rising by 15–30 watts every two minutes. Your heart rate and the increasing workload are monitored throughout.
In the maximal test, your oxygen uptake capacity is estimated from the maximum power output achieved and your power-to-weight ratio. Your maximum heart rate can also be used to calculate indicative training zones to support your own training.
The cycle ergometer test is also well suited to groups, as up to six people can be tested at the same time. Several groups can be tested back to back, making it an efficient option for teams, companies and exercise groups, for example.
