The reference metabolic profile for cyclists

The INSCYD Power Performance Decoder (PPD) is an advanced performance test specifically designed for cycling. Based on power data collected on the road or indoors, it provides a comprehensive metabolic profile comparable to a physiological analysis in a laboratory.

Thanks to scientifically validated protocols, the PPD provides an accurate reading of the cyclist's metabolic functioning in order to optimize training, intensity management, and long-term progress.

What the INSCYD PPD test measures

The test provides a comprehensive physiological analysis, including:

• VO₂max: maximum aerobic capacity

• VLamax: maximum glycolytic power (anaerobic production)

• Anaerobic threshold

• Fat and carbohydrate burning rates according to intensity

• Customized training zones based on the cyclist's actual physiology

How the test works

The PPD is based on the analysis of structured exercise sequences performed on a bicycle:

• maximum sprints

• controlled submaximal efforts

Data from the Power Meter are analyzed by the INSCYD platform to accurately model the cyclist's metabolic parameters.

Allow approximately 60 to 75 minutes to complete this test.
