Understand Physiological Strength and Weaknesses With metabolic profile

With just one test, you get a complete 360° metabolic profile—capturing VO2max, VLamax, FatMax, carbohydrate and fat combustion rates, lactate accumulation, and more. This comprehensive data reveals how energy systems work together, helping you create tailored, performance-driven training plans.

  • Comprehensive understanding of performance limitation

  • Detailed insights into individual physiological capabilities

  • Quantify possible improvements based on specific training adaptations

FOR WHO? INSCYD is for all athletes. INSCYD is for all athletes. INSCYD will benefit your training schedule and performance with both a scientific foundation and precise predictability. With INSCYD you’ll get full picture of your physical capacities and also a prediction of your training and racing outcomes.

Anaerobic Threshold

It is commonly known and accepted that there is a critical intensity (or power) as the highest intensity that allows for a “steady state” in your metabolism. People call this the anaerobic threshold, critical power or velocity. Everybody knows it exists and everybody wants to increase it.

 

The commonly used methods to determine the anaerobic threshold are based on empirical findings within a certain population. But this has let to a lot of misunderstanding around anaerobic threshold and has restricted its assessment to some non-specific protocols. The most significant shortfall on the empirical determination of anaerobic threshold is that it doesn't provide any insight on the reasons why the anaerobic threshold is what it is.

 

By testing your AT with ME/US, you’ll get it tested according to its main definition: the maximum intensity at which lactate combustion equals lactate production. These tests will benefit you with an improved understanding of your own performances and how they’re composed. More precisely, you’ll then get to:

 

  • Know the influence of physiological metrics on your anaerobic threshold.

  • Reduce the standard error of determination of the anaerobic threshold to < 3%.

  • Calculate the enhancement of anaerobic threshold by improving a single performance metric.

Lactate accumulation & recovery

 

In disciplines with a random interval-type work demand, such as cycling or football, repeated high-intensity efforts are unavoidable.

 

Every bout of sprinting and attacking may result in lactate accumulation. The duration and intensity that an athlete can recover from these efforts are absolutely crucial.

 

The ability to use lactate as a fuel and to actually use it to optimize your performance is absolutely crucial in high intensity sports. These kind of abilities are highly trainable and with ADPAPT 2 BALANCE you can start training them for real and see the real benefits in a very short time.

VLAmax // Elite Coaches secret weapon disclosed VLAmax can be looked at from two different sides. From one side, a low VLamax would increase your anaerobic threshold, your fat combustion and it would shorten your recovery time from hard efforts. On the other hand, a high VLamax increases the power available for attacks, sprints and short efforts. The anaerobic capacity can actually make the difference between winning and losing a race: the final lap, the final sprint, the final push – they are all decided by your glycolytic power. Vlamax is the most important metric you should focus on and train according to. You may have never heard of it because up until last year it was used only by pro teams and national federations. But now its benefits are opened to everyone and you can finally start connecting all the dots that compose your performances: metrics, training adaptations, race predictions … Don’t waste your time training the wrong way. Get tested with US/COACHING BUSINESS NAME , I/WE – know your VLamax – and tailor your training according to it. Here is what Dan Lorang, coach of IRONMAN world champion Jan Frodeno says about VLamax “You really know what to work on if you know the VLamax” — DAN LORANG - HIGH PERFORMANCE COACH OF IRONMAN WORLD CHAMPION JAN FRODENO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOUVcuE_x3E create hyperlink /embed video

VO2max // size of the engine From swimming sprints to 90-minute football matches, the maximum aerobic capacity (VO2max) is the single most important performance metric that needs to be looked at. As often misunderstood, VO2max is not restricted by only raw physical talent, but it can be trained to unknown maximums. VO2max is also a metric that responds quickly to training, so it needs to be monitored regularly. When you start a training program with US/COACHING BUSINESS NAME , I/WE will test your VO2max and I/WE will plan a coaching plan tailored to increase it, but not only. Through our performance software we also be able to: Compare the effect of high-intensity trainings and endurance workouts on VO2max. Evaluate the impact of specialized nutrition regimes to further increase VO2max. Understand the impact of VO2max on fat oxidation and carbohydrate combustion.
