The lactate threshold is the exercise intensity where lactate accumulates faster than it can be cleared. LT1 (aerobic) ≈ 65% HRmax; LT2 (anaerobic/FTP) ≈ 85% HRmax. Training below LT1 builds aerobic base; above LT2 builds speed.

Did You Know?
Elite endurance athletes have LT2 at 80-90% of VO2max, vs 60-70% for recreational athletes. Raising LT2 relative to VO2max is the key adaptation from interval training.
