The Talk Test – How Aerobic Are You?

  • You’re aerobic – if you can talk for as long as you want with minimal huffing and puffing (h & p)
  • You are mostly aerobic – if you can talk for 30 sec + then must h & p for no more than 10 sec
  • You are approaching anaerobic threshold – if you can only talk for 10 sec or less, then h & p  for 10 + sec
  • You’re anaerobic – if you can’t talk more than a few words, and are mostly huffing and puffing.
