Table V. Comparison of lactate <strong>threshold</strong> <strong>concepts</strong> with MLSS determined by several constant load trials of different intensity<br />

Threshold concept Subjects Main outcome Reference<br />

LT4, OBLA<br />

16 healthy<br />

males<br />

(running)<br />

High correlation between LT4 and MLSS (r = 0.98)<br />

LT4 on average 0.12 m/s higher than MLSS with 3 min stages but not<br />

with 5 min stages during GXT<br />

Heterogenous endurance level<br />

Heck et al. [49,72]<br />

IAT (Stegmann et al. [88] )<br />

IAT (Keul et al. [96] )<br />

22 healthy<br />

subjects<br />

(cycling)<br />

8 trained male<br />

runners<br />

Significant correlation between LT4 and MLSS (r = 0.92)<br />

LT4 on average 19.9 W higher than MLSS<br />

Heterogenous endurance level, slow increase in power output<br />

(+6W/min)<br />

High correlation (r = 0.93) between OBLA and MLSS<br />

OBLA on average 0.4 km/h higher than MLSS<br />

21 elite cyclists Low correlation (r = 0.71) between LT4 and MLSS<br />

No significant difference between LT4 and MLSS (MLSS 15 W higher)<br />

Homogenous endurance level<br />

9 male rowers Significant correlation (r = 0.82) between LT4 and MLSS<br />

LT4 significantly higher (32 W) than MLSS<br />

Homogenous endurance level<br />

10 well trained<br />

cyclists<br />

runners<br />

11 males<br />

Average power output at LT4 and MLSS was not significantly different<br />

(282 W vs 277 W)<br />
