Highly conditioned athletes experience the anaerobic threshold at what percentage?

Asked by dpkarras

Answer (2)

Highly conditioned athletes generally experience the anaerobic threshold at about 80% to 90% of their maximum heart rate. This threshold indicates when lactate begins to accumulate in the muscles, impacting performance. Training helps athletes enhance their lactate processing abilities, allowing them to perform better.
