Gordo - would you say she started off ez enough ? Wouldn’t 2.3 L read out already be above LT1 (assuming Lt1 is 1.5 ish). My conclusion from the data - which is great btw - is she needs to develop her z1 / z2 and probably needs some over dx in the 1’25/m range.
Not easy enough at the start - which is normal for an initial test in a group setting.
At the next test I'd want baseline as well as a clear read on the pace required to bottom out lactate.
That profile indicates all subjective zones are likely set too fast in the athlete's mind. So there's a bit of recalibration required. Straightforward with an experienced athlete used to reading the clock while swimming.
Agreed. Think we are saying the same thing. Didn’t realize she was in a group. Peer pressure!
It impacts even the most experienced athletes.
