PERFORMANCE METABOLIC TEST

Unlock your personal metabolic profile.

This test gives you a clearer picture of what is happening inside your body when you train. Instead of guessing your zones, fuelling needs, or race pacing, you get data that helps you make better training decisions.

VO₂max & VLamax insight.
+

Understand your aerobic capacity and glycolytic contribution.

VO₂max and VLamax analysis
Fat & carbohydrate utilization.
+

See how your body uses fuel across different intensities.

Fat and carbohydrate utilisation
Training recommendations.
+

Turn the results into practical actions for your next training block.

WHY IT MATTERS

Train from physiology.
Not percentages.

INSCYD PPD Test, defines training targets from your individual physiology—not from predefined %FTP ranges that may not reflect your metabolic response.

More precise training decisions
01
Zones based on your real physiology.
Training intensities are based on your VO₂max, VLamax, and metabolic markers — rather than predefined FTP percentages.
02
Better control of the intended training stimulus.
Each session can target the correct physiological response, whether the goal is aerobic development, selecting the most effective recovery intensity for lactate clearance between HIIT efforts, or reducing glycolytic contribution.
03
Understand the energy and carbohydrate demand.
See how much energy comes from fat and carbohydrates at different intensities, helping you pace more accurately and match your fuelling to the demands of each training session or race.
Who is this for?

For riders who want decisions based on physiology.

Ideal for all cyclists who want accurate insight.

The rider ready to move beyond predefined FTP zones.
You want training intensities based on your individual aerobic and glycolytic profile rather than fixed percentages.
+
The rider whose progress has plateaued.
You train consistently but need to identify whether aerobic capacity, glycolytic demand, or fuel utilisation is limiting further progress.
+
The competitor preparing for a specific event.
You want more precise pacing, training targets, and carbohydrate requirements for the demands of your race.
+
The athlete who wants to measure progress objectively.
You want a physiological baseline that can be repeated later to evaluate how your training has changed your metabolic profile.
+
"
What gets measured can be trained. What gets understood can be improved.
