What is a T-Ware performance test like?
The test is a biking trip, which starts with a gently sloped downhill, and starts to steepen. Ultimately, the ends on the top of one’s personal hill. The workload (uphill) rises smoothly all the time, but very gently. On the top of the hill, when you quit pedalling, the test program knows the output you’ve pedalled (W) and accurately calculates your maximum heart rate. With the combined information of the heart rate curve, output and maximal heart rate the program is able to calculate your maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max) very accurately.
