I know of the method of running 60 seconds all-out, 3 minutes rest, then 60 seconds all-out to calculate 800m predictability, but I can't find the web-site or formula to put in the information to find the predicted times. Can someone please post the website or information. I'm not looking for the McMillan Chart, I'm looking for the actual fomula for this workout. Thanks.
Kosmin Test:
thanks. has anyone had trouble using the 800 female equation? i cannot get it to work correctly.
If you are referring to the calculator, it works fine for both. Not sure why women need a different algorithm, though.
Can someone explain what "controlled maximal effort" means? I'm particularly interested as it relates to a 1500 meter test.
It means don't go 100% until the final rep, or you will be sorry (and it won't predict as well). In other words, pace yourself (to race goal pace).
