Hello all, I am a post collegiate runner and I am getting my vo2 taken next Thursday. I have a 10k road race on Saturday, will I be recovered enough to still run a good time? Have any of you done a vo2 and raced the same week? Please let me know.
Thanks.
I have done a vo2max test twice. Once in week of racing. Had race three days later. Race went ok. If you want to PR at your race, you might have a hard time. I would set time goals for your next race.
VO2max testing is senseless with or without the upcoming race.
How much it takes out of you (and what numbers they come up with) really depends much on the protocol used. Because of the important influence of protocol selection on the measured consumption, VO2peak is actually the more accurate term.
My brother in law studies exercise science and asked me to join his study. What are the chances I will be able to still run fast
