VO2 Testing Weekend

A few local athletes came to "Kelley Acres" Speed Shop to have a VO2 Max Test this weekend with Susan Hefler of HPC. VO2 Max testing defines an endurance athlete's performance ceiling. The information allows the athlete to train more efficiently.

Family Training

Our 17yr. old nephew, Ryan was in town from Evergreen, CO. He's very active playing hockey , ultimate frisbee, running cross country and marathons.


We wanted a fresh face to test out the CompuTrainers and give us input from someone that isn't a cyclist. Here is Ryan warming up before class.

I will spare you the rest of the class details but this guy has some fitness! I'm chalking it up to altitude (my pride:) but the reality of it is he's super fit!
