Lactic Threshold detection help

1141507 9 days ago

I've tried and failed twice now to do the guided lactic threshold test. I hit my lactic in the low 160s yet when this step completes the watch asks me to run 3 mins at 170 - 180 bpm and 3 mins at 180 - 190 bpm, neither of which I can as I've hit the wall! It then follows up with lactic not detected.

Any tips to solve this issue? I also have lactic auto detect set up and it is yet to auto detect.

Max HR: 189 which has been auto detected and zones are set up correctly

Watch: Forerunner 265

HRM: Polar H10

They have changed it all now from Beta 21.16 (not sure its for the better, but you can read the comments in the beta forum - look at the 965 beta forum comments also.)

Did you know that beta firmwares are unstable releases, not finished and stable, also the stable presents issues, so more the BETA...

If you are running the beta, you should post in the beta forum

Maybe your MHR detected and config by the watch is wrong, and too high, this is why you hit the wall before you finish the test, by the way, this test is very hard, so try to do when youre completely recover and with full energy and each 4 to 8 weeks,
