Q&A #65 - How much and when to train in the aerobars; Rest/freshness requirements before testing (e.g. lactate testing)

Q&A #65 - How much and when to train in the aerobars; Rest/freshness requirements before testing (e.g. lactate testing)  

• How much is enough when it comes to training in the aerobars/Time Trial position? 
• Does the amount of training in the aerobars change over the course of the year, or with training indoors compared to outdoors?
• What type of workouts should preferentially be done in the aerobars versus sitting up?
• How rested and fresh should you be before fitness testing such as lactate tests in order to get reliable and useful results?
• Do lactate or other tests 'never lie' or are there situations when you should disregard these test results?
