Optimizing Training: Understanding High and Low Heart Rate Anaerobic Thresholds

Hey folks,
This topic is open for discussion, and I want to address the issue of Low/High Heart Rate Threshold (Anaerobic threshold, AnT) for consideration.
Recently, my latest client, a very promising young athlete in his early 20s, raised a question: Is having a high AnT mark good? He has an Anaerobic threshold of about 190 bpm.
Having a low or high threshold heart rate doesn’t necessarily correlate with athletic performance or success. Rather, it may depend on your training regimen and athletic experience. It’s related to the concept of heart reprogramming.
Moreover, I’d like to pose the question: What is the Power Efficiency of One Heart Stroke?
In other words, what is the marginal power output of one heartbeat? The marginal power refers to the range of power output that results from increasing or decreasing one heartbeat.
Thus, you may have a low AnT heart rate, but if the Power Efficiency is very high (wide marginal power), it can compensate for it.
What are your thoughts on this?
If you’re interested in learning how to expand the range of power output, don’t hesitate to consult with your physiologist.
Stay tuned!
