There is no "LT", jerkhead. Or more precisely, there are 30 definition of this so called threshold.

These guys are full of themselves.

"Insight “looks inside” your muscle during exercise to measure real bio signals and determine how hard you’re actually working, compared with how hard you should be working. Through paired communication with your sports watch it lets you know, in real-time, whether to speed up, slow down, or even rest. BSX Insight is best used both during training as well as on race day to help you finish your perfect race. With BSX Insight you are sure to get the most out of every mile, every time."
"Lactate Threshold is one of the most common, and THE most effective, performance marker used by competitive coaches and athletes. For over 50 years it has been the gold standard for performance measurement and has repetitively been shown to be over 95% accurate at predicting race finish order*. This means it can be used with near perfect accuracy to personalize the appropriate training intensities of each athlete."
"What we mean by this, is that across all athletes in our sample population we were able to identify the lactate threshold event using Insight with 5% or less deviation from what independent professional assessment determined it to be using traditional blood sampling methods. Those errors measurements essentially represent the percent of deviation from what the blood tests determined an LT to be, and what Insight determined them to be. As mentioned previously, current efforts are investigating how much of this error is due to true inaccuracies in Insight's data collection and/or algorithms, vs how much is due to the increased resolution that Insight has over traditional measurements and therefore represents an overall improvement in accuracy."
