Two thresholds
Below first vt they stay level and stable (easy, 1 and 2)
Between first and second threshold, lactate levels start to increase, but if you stay at a steady pace, the LT will stabilize and not increase (moderate) at the higher end you could be doing hard work; this is also sweet spot just below the 2nd threshold
Above 2nd threshold; at a steady pace the lactate increases and continues to accumulate
45-70 minutes at 2nd threshold
Yokohama - US Women Sweep podium https://303triathlon.com/podium-sweep-in-yokohama-highlights-great-weekend-for-usa-triathlon/
Three Americans on the podium and a third straight World Triathlon Series (WTS) victory for Katie Zaferes (Santa Cruz, Calif.) made it an incredible weekend for the USA Triathlon women in Yokohama. Summer Rappaport (Thornton, Colo.) earned silver for the second WTS medal of her career, while Taylor Spivey (Redondo Beach, Calif.) continued her impressive 2019 season with a bronze medal to help the red, white and blue round out the podium. It was the fourth U.S. podium sweep in ITU World Triathlon Series history and the first since 2016.
