Going longer in a ramp test and higher VO2 values can coincide, but do not have to.
- You will go longer when your aerobic capacity (TP and HIE) are higher, while PP is maintained or overcompensated
- You might go longer if TP and PP are maintained and HIE is increased, but only in tests with a steep incline (more watts per time)
- You will go longer when TP and HIE are maintained and PP is increased, as MPA decreases from a higher Baseline
