So it really doesn't matter if you do it in the afternoon or you do it in the morning, as long as you keep it consistent. Then from there, I would do a proper warm-up.

So again, here I would do a warmup much in the same way I would do a training session. So I would normally stick to a standardized warmup protocol where you start out maybe, for example, six minutes, very easy. This can even be walking. Then I would do, or basically pedaling, soft pedaling.

Then I would do six minutes with a little bit more effort, but it typically should be more something that you would be comfortable doing as your longest sessions that you do. So if you are out and you do, I say the longest sessions you do is an hour.

Obviously, if they're all out, then it would be a little bit too hard, but then you should more aim for something I could do for like, this would be an easy session for me, but I could do it for some while. You could, for some people say, this is your marathon, let's say pace or where you do more of a longer rides. And then I would do a short effort around three minutes.

That sits somewhere where at this time I wouldn't look too much on my power meter or my heart rate or anything, but more by feeling where you feel, okay, this is normally where my threshold would be. And then I would probably also do, let's say, a couple of short, short efforts that are, let's say, progressively towards VO2 max.

And then I would probably also do, let's say, a couple of short, short efforts that are, let's say, progressively towards VO2 max.
So let's say one, two, three, maybe two to three efforts that are somewhere between 10, 15 seconds with equal rest in between. And the reason for this is that it's easy to think, oh, but don't you exhaust yourself now? before you do the view to max then? Well, no, you don't.

The little fatigue, or let's say the little fatigue that you possibly would induce with this is easily offset by other factors that will much more contribute to your view to max when you start doing this. So that means also that after I've done this one, I would just again go back to very short, easy efforts as you get a total warmup of 20 minutes, something like this.

In between there, take a toilet break or anything like this, but don't keep this rest too long because obviously now you're going to cool down again if you don't go to your VO2 max test now. So that means also like have a small sip of water, something like this, if you want to do that.

Also, before you start your warmup, it can be good things if you have something carbohydrate based, you consume a little bit of that. Some people would say, ah, I don't like this because it could influence.

Yeah. But then again, this is something I would say that maximal, yes, maximal, it won't do that very much because the closer you get to your metabolic steady state or maximal metabolic steady state and then above, basically things start to homogenize. Yeah.
