Mr Arvid Johannesen, World Champion in Master Class Endurance Bicycling, is able to save energy by using Stamox. This is tested the following way:
On the spinning bicycle, we measure the watt produced with the pedals, and we measure the heart beat. When he exercises he typically produce 380 Watt on the pedals for 30 minutes.
When not using Stamox, his heart rate will then be 153 beats per minute.
But when taking a shot Stamox 2 1/2 hours prior to the exercise or race he will have a hart beat only 145 beats per minute.
This reflects the oxygen consumed, and the lactate produced.
In a competition he may use this saved energy (and avoidance of lactate excess), to increase the power on the pedals to 390 or 400 Watt, or save it to the end or the race for a explosive sprint.
Stamox will work similarly successful in any sport.
Arvid Johannesen explains:
“Stamox has a noticeable impact on my cycling performance. During rides, I can sustain a 380-watt threshold with Stamox, compared to 280 watts without it. This is accompanied by a lower heart rate: 145 bpm with Stamox versus 153 bpm without, at the lower wattage. This efficiency translates to longer training sessions with less physiological stress and faster recovery. The increased oxygen availability also allows me to push harder for longer before lactate buildup becomes a limiting factor. I use Stamox for both training and competition because of these performance benefits.”
