NOTE

Laboratories Are Scarce, but Protocols Matter

The scarcity of laboratories, especially within academic institutions, poses a significant challenge for research and testing in fields such as exercise physiology. Many labs are closing due to a lack of interest or funding, limiting access to vital testing facilities. Research involves specific protocols, particularly for lactate testing in cycling and running. Effective testing protocols are critical for generating reliable data; longer duration protocols, such as 10-minute intervals for cycling and 5-minute intervals for running, allow for better assessment of an individual's ability to sustain intensity. Historical short ramp protocols have been found to provide less reliable information, emphasizing the importance of developing and adhering to more effective testing methods.
