Maximal lactate accumulation rate (ċLamax) has gained increased scientific interest in international literature as a promising augmentation of metabolic profiling. In order to recommend its application in science/practice, evidence on its reliability and specificity is crucial. Accordingly, this abstract summarizes two chapters of a recently submitted invited review article covering its current evidence and future directions for exercise testing and training. A total of N=48 peer-reviewed Journal articles in English language were aggregated in this review.Here the Abstract as .pdf:https://dshs-koeln.sciebo.de/s/PWHF4FMtyXX9APOHere a Playlist to all #sciencesnackshttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/10RidgFbWxpq2Uo7ieF84V?si=MbLfAgYMR4aD_AyHzR4Cfg&pi=QSKvlxDxSRi1XHere all guest episodes:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2KAIQpuFMv21jKYqeBA3zy?si=jjmr2JycTE2Q1Vm9Y16LMA&pi=39X3URPuQxemdYou can support this podcast here! 🙏https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ojquittSend me questions via Email (o.quittmann@dshs-koeln.de) or SpeakPipe: www.speakpipe.com/ojquittMy "Socials":Instagram https://instagram.com/ojquittPodcast https://instagram.com/exerciseinsideoutYouTube https://youtube.com/@ojquittResearchGate https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Oliver-Quittmann00:00 Teaser (German)00:59 Start04:26 Reliability07:37 Specificity08:00 Modality09:47 Sex11:52 Conclusion
