Elite Aerobic Endurance Performance: Is It Really Related to Lactate Threshold Expressed Relative to Peak Oxygen Uptake?
The findings of similar LT% between different performance levels in the large group of endurance athletes challenges the realm of LT% being considered one of the primary determinants of aerobic endurance performance. This study also confirms the importance of VO2peak as a primary predictor of aerobic endurance performance in a large group of aerobic endurance athletes.
