Lactate production rate as a key regulator between aerobic efficiency and anaerobic exertion.
Endurance sports require exceptional performance, which can be determined, among other things, by the lactate threshold VLa max. This is especially true in triathlons, which combine three disciplines – swimming, cycling and running – in a seamless transition. Training is very complex and differs significantly from specialised training for individual disciplines. Maximising performance in each of these disciplines and the ability to switch efficiently between them are crucial to a triathlete's success. VLamax, the maximum lactate formation rate, plays an important role in performance development and performance diagnostics in triathlon and is closely related to other physiological factors, such as VO2 max, anaerobic capacity and glycolytic rate, among others.
