INSCYD Testing
An INSCYD-test can help you beyond ‘just the numbers’, and give you new insights in training to optimize your level of performance.
​
INSCYD is for all athletes – no matter level, age and gender.
INSCYD provides a full picture of your physical capacities.
INSCYD will benefit your training plan and performance with both a scientific foundation and precise predictability.
​
Endura Consulting offers INSCYD testing in order to provide road cyclists, gravel riders and mountainbikers with the best possible conditions for training accuracy and performance optimization.
​​
An INSCYD test will determine and connect important cycling performance metrics:
​
-
Anaerobic Capacity - VLamax
-
Aerobic Capacity - VO2max
-
Anaerobic Threshold - AT
-
Fat combustion rates - FatMax
-
Carbohydrate combustion rates - CarbMax
-
Lactate accumulation and recovery
​
Each of the metrics are critical to cycling performance, and therefore needs to be considered in training.
​
We offer the following two INSCYD Test options.
​
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
INSCYD PPD Test
The INDCYD Power Performance Decoder Test (PPD test) which is a remote test based on power, so you can do it on your own in training.
The PPD Test offers a remote test set-up, which means that you can do the testing at home during training, send data to your coach, and then it will be analysed in the ‘INSCYD Software' to provide a complete performance profile. Thus making training more individualized and specific in relation to your goals, strengths and weaknesses.
The INSCYD Power Performance Decoder test has been tested and validated for accuracy against physiological laboratory tests, which means that results are as accurate as laboratory testing.
​
The PPD test protocol is a straight forward protocol, where you have to perform 3 all-out efforts of different durations (20 second, 3 minute and 12-30 minute) over 1-3 days.
INSCYD Lactate Test
The INSCYD Lactate Test which is a field based test with lactate measurements, so you will perform the test outside on your own bike under guidance of an experienced coach.
The Lactate Test offers a field test set-up, which means that we meet up on a given location, and then you will be guided through the test protocol. Afterwards test data will analysed in the ‘INSCYD Software' to provide a complete performance profile. Thus making your training more individualized and specific in relation to your goals, strengths and weaknesses.
The INSCYD Lactate Test has been tested and validated for accuracy against physiological laboratory tests, which means that results are as accurate as laboratory testing.
​
The lactate test protocol is a straight forward 4 phase protocol, consisting of 3x6 minute submaximal efforts followed by a 3-4 minute all-out effort. Lactate sampling is done continuosly during testing. Normally a 20 second sprint effort will be added to estimate VLamax.
