    Hi folks,

    I am currently carrying out testing in Trinity as part of my MSc.
    Its focused on lactate kinetics in cyclists.
    I need 18-35yo males, registered competitive cyclists or triathletes.
    You get all the VO2 and lactate data for free as well as the medical.

    It involves 6 visits to the lab but we should get really accurate information with that.
    PM if interested and ill forward you full participant info.
    Thank you

    Does it need to be registered competitive cyclists? What about leisure cyclists?

    Don't worry - as Lumen implied it's a little dig I have every time one of these "offers" come up. I keep countering by saying there must be some benefit in researching how VO2 Max declines with age but no-one bites...

    Anyway, I guess I could always think of re-mortgaging the house and pay for my own:)

    key thing is though that lactate is far more accurate measure of where you stand!!
