The threshold test on a treadmill or cycle ergometer is suitable for athletes and competitive fitness enthusiasts who are working purposefully to improve their fitness. The test determines your individual threshold levels using lactate measurement.

Knowing your threshold levels allows you to plan your training more precisely and target different intensity zones. The test results can be used to monitor your fitness level, your performance and the effects of your training.

The test is particularly suitable for runners, skiers, orienteers, swimmers, cyclists, triathletes and other active exercisers interested in their endurance fitness and training. The test can be done on either a treadmill or a cycle ergometer, depending on your sporting background and goals.
