Hi Shashi & Team
I re-did the AET test today. Did the test fasted as I would like to get some fasted workouts in. Will repeat this for future tests as well.
Test was done indoors on a treadmill, I warmed up for 25 minutes. I then stopped and restarted the treadmill, so from 26th to 28th minute it was getting the treadmill back up to the test speed as well as getting my HR up.
Test starts around 29th minute and ends at 1:24, so two halves of approximately 27minutes. Speed: 2.6 & Inclination:13 was fixed for the duration of the test.
On analyzing via Training Peaks I get avg HR of first half 140, Avg of second half 149. So a drift 6.4% , better than before, still higher. This does help confirm I need a good 20+ minutes to warm-up and get the aerobic system online
Question: Since the starting HR for the test was 134/5, I am guessing I should be ok continuing with 130 as my AET ? or should I drop it lower?
The recording below includes warm-up and the test.
