INSCYD - Remote Physiology Test/Analysis

 

What is INSCYD?

INSCYD’s remote, innovative protocol-based physiology test results have been validated for accuracy against laboratory-grade physiology testing, to provide the data you would get from a lab… captured via simple field-testing that can be done with your power meter/smart trainer. The test protocol is composed of a series of maximal efforts, that can be performed in a single day, or up to a three-day period. The key information for most cyclists is:

  • Determination of how you make power (metabolic variables), which can significantly improve the way you train to reach your specific goals.

  • Determination of your fat & carbohydrate oxidation capacity, which can significantly improve your racing and training fueling strategies.

The INSCYD Report provides:

Metabolic Capacities:

  • VO2max: maximum aerobic power

  • VLamax: maximum glycolytic power

  • AT: anaerobic threshold

  • FatMax: maximum fat metabolism

  • CarbMax: carbohydrate metabolism

Team BORA’s overview / use of INSCYD:

T2M INSCYD Pricing:

  • Comprehensive Report. After reviewing the INSCYD Report, T2M Coaches will include the results in a comprehensive 10+ page report, providing a deep dive explanation into how to interpret the information, and suggestions for training strategy going forward. This is highly recommended for first-time INSCYD users, to provide background information / education on VO2 Max, Threshold and VLA Max.

    • Non-T2M Athletes $275 and existing T2M Athletes $225.

  • Basic/Standard INSCYD Report. For repeat testing, athletes can elect for the standard INSCYD report, with no additional commentary.

    • Non-T2M Athletes $200 and existing T2M Athletes $150.
