Subject: Best time to get V02 and threshold testing done
I was wondering when is a good time to get the testing done. Should I get in now towards the end of my racing season or should I wait until next year right before the season or when I start working on my base again at the beginning of the year? I plan on starting a Full Iron Distance training program sometime at the beginning of the year.

Hi Adam

Anytime is a good time to get tested. With the season ending and being in relatively good shape would be a good time as well as the beginning of the season to see where you are starting from.

You definitely want a 'baseline' test so you know where you starting from. So, there really isn't a bad time to test. I hope this helps.
