May mark lactate threshold via epinephrine in athletes; hypothesis-generating for mechanisms, does not yet inform testing or training.
Does the inflection in plasma epinephrine correlate with the blood lactate threshold during graded exercise in endurance athletes?
The inflection in plasma epinephrine is strongly correlated with the blood lactate threshold during graded exercise, suggesting a potential causal relationship.
