Jeremy:

The Garmin Lactate Threshold estimation will not give the same result as our HR Drift test.  The HR drift test is used to determine the aerobic threshold. The Lactate Threshold, as Garmin uses it, is equivalent to our Anaerobic Threshold.   If you really want to know your AnT/LT you should conduct our AnT. It’s going to be more accurate.  This article will give you more information about these tests https://evokeendurance.com/our-latest-thinking-on-aerobic-assessment-for-the-mountain-athlete/.

I hope this helps.
