ADITIONAL ASSESSMENT
As part of your 3-week altitude training camp, you can arrange a pre- and post-training heart rate max test, to draw a baseline measurement of your current performance, and track your progress. The assessment involves working through a range of intensities in a RAMP test protocol until exhaustion, helping us to set your training zones, and get an idea of your current level of performance. Your initial consultation will form the basis to track your progress from, and help to quantify those performance gains!
