Lactic acid is the result of anaerobic ATP production, but where your threshold lies is very individual. I know you can do lab-based lactic threshold testing but I don't think any estimating from Garmin will be really useful.

I have no idea where to find such a number in my garmin stuff anyways. Sorry!
Does this mean that heart rate threshold is the same as lactic acid threshold?
