How do people approximately calculate their LT1 and LT 2 without a blood test?

A few of things: Word of the day - ephemeral. Love it. I’m still convinced Andrew Coggan is among us. Just so you know, I learn a lot from you Coggan. So, thank you. Even though you are grumpy sometimes. @WindWarrior So my interpretation of this tweet is: “the entire curve moves (with training)”…

redlude97: I think it was in the Pro/Elite thread discussing how cyclists love to assign concrete numbers to things when its all very fuzzy Because power meters are one of the most precise things in sport. And the human body one of the least precise. Sucks.

If you’re well-trained upper Zone 2 is not easyish. Especially when going for several hours. On several days per week.

Alan Couzens take on Altini’s post. I think those old coaches just love their lactate meters.
