Looking for some tips to increase my anaerobic threshold.
Currently, I do pretty good when it comes to fitness on the mountain and my solo deer/elk pursuits. I feel my current varied workout routines which alternate between cardio, HIIT, and kettlebells have served me well. From what I have been seeing, my RHR has been decreasing over time and HRV has been increasing as well (only wavering during illness or recovery from broken bones).
However, I have rekindled an old hobby that has serious consequences if you stay in the anaerobic zone for even short durations. Lactic acid building up in your extremities is a prescription for medical bills on a motocross track at speed.
My question: What exercise techniques and metrics can I use to increase that threshold and show it’s improving? I know what my heart rate zones are for aerobic and anaerobic are but tailoring workouts for an overall improvement is a gap I’m not sure how to close and support with data.
