Subject: Lance's HR....
Anyone see the interview with Carmichael?  Said Lance's HR went up to 191 two minues in then averaged 184 for the TT.  So that's his LT????

Also showed a printout from a workout, said the key was to get the HR up immediately to the LT and keep it there.  HR shot straight up and then leveled forever.....

I haven't read what Lance's LT is but the "optimal" LT for any athlete is when LT = Max HR so the closer you get your LT to your Max HR the better (obviously).

that short of a TT will have you well above LT. there is nothing after it, and you have 20 minutes at maximum sustainable effort.

these guys train to deal with the LT build-up. mental buffer, and muscles used to operating with it.
