Team Member Mike Abriham Vo2 Test May 12, 2004
(Tim Woodcock was also tested at the
U of M as well, no pics though)

Ulla
(U of M) Tapes Mikes feet to the pedals.
|
More
tape! We didn't have a 6mm allen key in the lab so we
could not put Mikes clipless pedals on the test bike,
hence the foot taping.
|
During
a Vo2 Max test, a hose is placed in the athletes mouth
and the nose plugged. The hose is hooked up to a computer
that measures oxygen breathed in and carbon dioxide
and oxygen breathed out.
|
Ulla
monitors the 'Metabolic Cart', the computer and hardware
that measures gases breathed in and out. Assisting
Ulla is Jennifer Onyskie (background) controlling
the resistance on the test bike.
|
Cris
LaBossiere of Rhino Fitness takes a blood lactate
sample with the Lactate Pro analyzer, which is the
size of a credit card. For lactate testing at competitive
events, lactate threshold testing, and training based
on lactate/ heart rate/ wattage, contact Rhino
Fitness.

Woodcock
Team Member Tim Turenne Vo2 Test June 15, 2004
|
|
Ulla
attaches the hose to Tim's face. He's not quite sure
what he's in for..
|
Would
you believe this ripped athlete is almost 50 years of
age? He routinely kicks butt on the 20-something's -
Tim won Silver
and Bronze medals in Provincial Championships this year
|
Yes,
it is somewhat uncomfortable. But hey, it's all in the
name of science!
|
|
|
Cris
takes another lactate sample.
|
Ulla's
watchful eye analyzes the live data.
