Altitude Performance Nasıl Hesaplanır?

learn.whatIsHeading

At altitude, reduced atmospheric pressure means less oxygen per breath. VO2max decreases approximately 1% per 100m above 1,500m, causing slower pace for the same perceived effort.

Adım Adım Kılavuz

1VO2max reduction: approx 1% per 100m above 1,500m elevation
2Performance impact is greater for longer, more aerobic events
3Acclimatisation over days to weeks partially compensates through physiological adaptations

Çözümlü Örnekler

Giriş

60-minute sea-level pace at 2,500m altitude

Sonuç

Expect 6-10% slower - pace back accordingly and track heart rate rather than pace
