Performance Diagnostic Basic

Spiroergometry – an increasing load on the bike or treadmill with simultaneous measurement of respiratory gases & ventilation – is used to determine your threshold values, which are necessary for targeted training monitoring and management. You will obtain your pulse value and speed/watt at the 1^st and 2^nd ventilatory threshold. Your trainer needs these values to be able to monitor and manage your training properly. These values change, which is why 2-3 measurements per year are recommended for ambitious athletes. After the measurement, you will be given the values with a short explanation of the training ranges.

Performance diagnostic Premium

In addition to the basic diagnostics, this involves an analysis on the bike and on the treadmill. A movement analysis is also carried out during the run: a precise high-speed video analysis that allows you to identify any hidden potential in your running technique. Directly after the diagnostics, the determined values are briefly explained, and within 24h you will receive the an evaluation of both tests, the movement analysis based on picture series, as well as general training recommendations, all in writing! If you do the diagnostics regularly and only need an update, the offer is sufficient; otherwise we recommend that you book another training consultation afterwards to be able to integrate the results into your training accordingly.

Trailrunning

Trail running is a nature-based form of running that takes place off paved roads — along forest paths, over rocky mountains, and through scenic valleys. These varied routes not only challenge your endurance but also demand focus and technique.

The area around Schloss Elmau, set in the heart of the picturesque Alpine landscape, offers ideal conditions for trail runners: diverse trails through forests and alpine meadows with breathtaking views. It’s a perfect place to fully enjoy the sport in nature — far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
