Greetings
Has anyone ever utilized lactate threshold testing models for monitoring their training? I have a copy of Jan Olbrechts book on the subject on the way from a contact in Belgium as the book is not available in the US right now. The finger stick monitors seem pretty straight forward to use as well. I am intrigued with the idea of using this tool over the winter just for the fun of it. Do any of you have any experience with this subject and/or advice. I am a master swimmer mostly prepping for OW events in the 1-3 mile distance. My son is a USA age group swimmer. We will both use the monitor if I can get him to tolerate the finger sticks.
Thanks
