Effect of incremental test protocol on the lactate minimum speed
Article Abstract:
Lactate minimum speed tests are insufficient to accurately estimate lactate thresholds. In studies using endurance runners as subjects, the tests were found to be significantly dependent on the starting speed chosen for the incremental sections of the testing phase. Variances in initial running speeds could therefore skew findings, rendering the tests inconclusive.

A disproportionate increase in VO2 coincident with lactate threshold during treadmill exercise
Article Abstract:
A study to assess the relationship between pulmonary VO2 and running speed over a range of exercise intensities confirmed the close association betweem theVO2 slow component and the onset of lactic acidosis and demonstrated the alinearity in the VO2-exercise intensity realtionship above Tlac for incremental treadmill exercise.
