The Relationship Between Lactate and FTP

The rise in lactate is correlated with the onset of FTP you can work very aerobically above your FTP for relatively long periods of time. Even in a one minute all-out effort depending on the athlete you can still get like 20 or 30 up to like 50 60 percent contribution of oxygen and oxygen derived ATP into that effort. The reality is that hypoxia like the lack of oxygen inducing an increase in lactate is a real thing but what they got wrong is that it's not a prerequisite for the lactate appearance.
